Re: [iText-questions] Rotate barcode

Fun with transformation matrixes. Yay. The problem is that rotation occurs around the origin, 0, 0 (the lower left corner of a PDF page). So if you're rotating the barcode 90 clockwise, it's being drawn off the page, below it in the +x, -y quadrant. To remedy this, I suggest you use AffineTrans

Hi Emmanuel, thanks for the detailed answer ! So 'dynamic' is more or less the short version of 'dynamically calculated representation depending on the current data'. Anyway, impleneting XFA signature brings a fairly portion of work. But if there are 'magic' numbers involved, I wouldn't be too

You can find a definition of dynamic form in the XFA spec: Here is an extract: "Dynamic forms change in appearance in response to changes in the data. They can do this in several ways. Forms may be designed to change structure to accommodate changes in the structure of the data supplied to the fo

Hmmm, sorry, I'm not that deep in PDF details ... a dynamic PDF is a PDF where someone filled some form with values ... isn't that the usual case for versioned signatures ? A first version signed with empty fields, a second version with new values appended, leaving the old signature intact ? An

Those who use "import com.lowagie.text..." are no longer supported. Those who use "import com.itextpdf.text..." are the ones you should use.

Hello Andreas! Yes, I am a little bit desperate about XFA signatures! ;-) My need is to make a *standard PDF Signature over a dynamic PDF file* which contains an empty XFA field. Typically, for tests purpose, I have this kind of field (totally created with Acrobat PRO meaning a default signature

Hi Emmanuel ! Leonard tried to talk ou into the standard PDF signatures but you stood firmly for XFA signatures ;-) What's your use case for XFA signatures ? Maybe we could add support for it into our signature server if there is a significant demand. Greetings Andreas - original Nachric

Thank you Leonard, that is helpful! If someone can confirm or not if iText supports MDP+ Signatures (Paulo or Bruno?), it would make me save a lot of time! And also, I do insist I know, but if someone discovers the checksum details calculations, it would be terrific! -- View this message in cont
