Many thanks Paulo and Andreas for your quick response. I have been reviewed the thread about version comparison and I have similar needs.
Now that I know there is no documentation from Adobe about legal or not legal changes on a certified document, I will try to get an alternative. What I really need is to check if the only change between two signatures is the last signature or there are more changes between both revisions. Is there any way to achieve this with iText? Thanks a lot!!
