-----------------------------------------

You're welcome [~tilman]. Thanks for link, but for signing we use DSS 
([https://github.com/esig/dss)] and it uses PDFBox as backend.

> We're using PDFBox (as backend used by Esig DSS) for digital signing of 
> documents. We've found out  that visible signature has different look on Mac 
> Preview app than other PDF viewers. After some investigation we suspect that 
> BBox-es for appearance of signature is not filled correctly by PDFBox. The 
> values are hard coded as [0, 0, 100, 50]. Also transformation matrix for 
> translating from form XObject coordinate system into default one has value 
> (1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0) -> no scaling between default user coordinate system and 
> form XObject coordinate system.
> Therefore I think that the Mac Preview App draws signature with dimensions 
> 100x50 because no transformation were done.
> I've attached patch which solves this issue for us. The signature is shown 
> correctly in all PDF viewers now. Maybe you can take a look on it and 
> integrate it into your code base, or propose better solution.
