bal commented on PDFBOX-4556:
-----------------------------

hi, as you said i have tried with the 5 line code as you suggested and 
visibleSignature.pdf is generated, i am attaching the PDF for you reference. 
only blank box with no  visual representation of the signature is shown in pdf 
but when i open that pdf with notepad++ i have seen the image then why it is 
not showing visually? i  tried  to create  the template PDF as in 
createvisualsignature2 example but getting null pointer exception at the the 
PDAppearanceDictionary see below code

PDAppearanceDictionary appearance = new PDAppearanceDictionary();
appearance.getCOSObject().setDirect(true);
PDAppearanceStream appearanceStream = new 
PDAppearanceStream(form.getCOSStream());
appearance.setNormalAppearance(appearanceStream);
widget.setAppearance(appearance); 

Also getting the same error "Could not read all needed objects from template" 
at the addsignature when i return the template as inputstream. I have checked  
with the debugging that annotation and signaturefield is set with the acroform 
but i am not sure it is set or not. I have attached the pdf with name 
"pdfAnnotation.pdf" for this. please check and let me know if annotation and 
signaturefield is set or not with the acroform.
