I am trying to use USPS Electornical Post Mark (EPM) to digitally sign my
PDF file.

I am following the posted example 

http://itextpdf.sourceforge.net/howtosign.html#howtosing

example:

How to sign with external signature dictionary (DSE200 example)

 

Unfortunately, there is very little information (in the iText book or the
API) on "why" and "what" is being done here.

Specifically, I am currently crashing (null pointer exception) on a call

PdfSignatureApperarance sap.

 sap.preClose()

-          which apparently calls sap.getAppearance(), but because in this
case one does not call sap.setCrypto(key, chain, null, appearance),
something in the appearance (i.e. signer information) is missing.

 

Similarly, I am a bit lost on the whole mechanism used in this case -
setting multiple dictionaries and hashes.

Is there someone who has done a similar "project" and can point me to more
information on this subject?
