Yes, I did check that article out. I am trying to sign a PDF through a
website. Our IIS server has the iTextSharp library and access to the
physical PDF file, but it does not have access to the user's cert and
private key. From what I understand, I cannot legally create a digital

so I would have to be able to hash and sign on the client, and returned the
encrypted hash back to the server.
Can iTextSharp accept externall

want to have this work on an ASP.NET project. Users log in with a smart
card, and our initial impression was that we could user the
