I use HTML2PDF tool to export my HTMLs to PDFs. It's a great tool !
However, I am having difficulties implementing Digital Signature Form Field for PDFs !
Basically, what I want, is to add the posibility for digital signing with one click by the client ! (I don't want to digitally sign the PDF with the server's key ! This PDF is downloaded by my clients and each of them must sign with its own digital signature).
Other PDF documents (probably created with other software) have the possibility of inserting a form field for signatures (like textbox, checkbox, radio button, etc.), that when the user clicks it, it automatically asks for the client's Digital Client Certificate (and the user Inserts its Cryptographic Token into the computer and can digitally sign the respective PDF).
How can I generate (I don't know, on the HTML side or on the PHP or PDF side) the necessary form field that when I export my PDF and download it, after opening it with Adobe Reader, for example, clicking on the respective field, the system having to ask me about my digital signature ?
I can always download the PDF manually and use Adobe Reader to Sign the PDF, but I saw other PDFs with forms built-in to digitally sign a document...
Or any other solution would be great...
Thank you !
Trying to digitally sign a PDF document locally by using a form field which I click and it directly asks me for to sign the document.
I cannot generate this kind of a PDF on the server side using PHP and HTML2PDF.
I might be able to do this from Adobe Acrobat Pro, for example, but the PDF is generated automatically on the Web Server.
