>              String alias = (String)ks.aliases().nextElement();
>              PrivateKey key = (PrivateKey)ks.getKey(alias, 
> pfxPassVal.toCharArray());
>              java.security.cert.Certificate[] chain = 
> ks.getCertificateChain(alias);
>              PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(inPDFVal);
>              FileOutputStream fout = new FileOutputStream(outPDFVal);
>              PdfStamper stp =

>              PdfSignatureAppearance sap =
