I hope you do have some knowledge about the PDFs that are going to be fed into your routine. Especially you will need to know what the "last line" on a page is meant to be and which space is "available" after it. * Is the "last line" actually the bottom-most line with text on the page? - On the one hand the last PDF page might have some footer text line while the "last line" to put the signature appearance below is some line above that footer. - On the other hand the "last line" might not be text but some graphic (e.g. to disable textual copy & paste, it might be inserted as graphics). Yet again some graphics might be meant as background not to be taken into account when trying to find the place for the signature. - Additionally there might be some widgets on that page. Are they to be considered? - What shall be done if there is no text on the last document page(s)? - Shall optional or invisible content be taken into account? * Is the "space available" actually all the space till the bottom of the page? - Shall some bottom margin be kept out of that calculation? Is that margin identical for all incoming documents? - Is the media box the relevant base area? Or some other box if present? Additional complications might arise. E.g. there might be individual pages in a document (including the final one) whose orientation is semantically different but not marked accordingly. In that case the semantic "bottom" might be right and your representation has to be inserted in a rotated way. Shall UserUnits be considered when sizing the signature representation? These are some questions immediately coming to my mind immediately after reading your requirements. There surely are a number of additional ones popping up when actually working on a solution. For a first shot, the margin discovery code Bruno pointed you to is a good starting point.
