I read the spec. It turns out that signatures are part of Acrobat Forms (chapter 6.14). It's not clear to me, what in particular is being signed - the rest of the form, perhaps?

Sorry, let me rephrase that. My question is, what is the proper way for a PDFFilter subclass to read values from the configuration file? The signing system would need access to the name of the private key, for instance. -- http://mparaz.com/journal/ +63-916-423-7922 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
