Prerequisite prerequisite

DocAssurance Service docassurance-service

The DocAssurance service includes the following services:

  • Signature service
  • Encryption service
  • Reader Extension service

You can perform the following operations using the DocAssurance service:

NOTE
All these services use Document object as input parameter for which the Javadoc can be found at the URL https://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/6-3/forms/javadocs/index.html

Adding an invisible signature field adding-an-invisible-signature-field

Digital signatures appear in signature fields, which are form fields that contain a graphical representation of the signature. Signature fields can be visible or invisible. Signers can use a pre-existing signature field, or a signature field can be programmatically added. In either case, the signature field must exist before a PDF document can be signed. You can programmatically add a signature field by using the Signature service Java API or Signature web service API. You can add more than one signature field to a PDF document. However, each signature field name must be unique.

Syntax: addInvisibleSignatureField(Document inDoc, String signatureFieldName, FieldMDPOptionSpec fieldMDPOptionsSpec, PDFSeedValueOptionSpec seedValueOptionsSpec, UnlockOptions unlockOptions)

Input Parameters

Parameters
Description
inDoc
Document object containing PDF.
signatureFieldName
The name of the signature field. This parameter is mandatory and cannot have null as a value.
fieldMDPOptionsSpec
A FieldMDPOptionSpec object that specifies the PDF document fields that are locked after the signature field is signed. This parameter is optional and can accept null value.
seedValueOptionsSpec
A SeedValueOptions object that specifies the various seed values for the field. T This parameter is optional and can accept null value.
unlockOptions
Includes the parameters require to unlock an encrypted file, This parameter is required only for the encrypted files.

Here is a sample Java code that adds an invisible signature field to a PDF document.

Getting signature getting-signature

You can retrieve the names of all signature fields that are in a PDF document that you want to sign or certify. If you are not sure of the signature field names in a PDF document or to verify the names, then retrieve the names programmatically. The Signature service returns the fully qualified name of the signature field, such as form1[0].grantApplication[0].page1[0].SignatureField1[0].

Syntax: getSignature(Document doc, String signatureFieldName, UnlockOptions unlockOptions)

Input Parameters

Parameters
Description
doc
Document object containing PDF.
signatureFieldName
The name of the signature field that contains a signature. Specify the fully qualified name of the signature field. When using a PDF document that is based on an XFA form, then the partial name of the signature field can be used. For example, form1[0].#subform[1].SignatureField3[3] can be specified as SignatureField3[3].
UnlockOptions
Includes the parameters require to unlock an encrypted file. This is required only if the file is encrypted.

The following Java code example retrieves the signature information for the given signature field in a PDF document.

Modifying signature fields  modifying-signature-fields-nbsp

You can modify signature fields that are in a PDF document. Modifying a signature field involves manipulating its signature field lock dictionary values or seed value dictionary values.

A field lock dictionary specifies a list of fields that are locked when the signature field is signed. A locked field prevents users from editing the field. A seed value dictionary contains constraining information that is used at the time the signature is applied. For example, you can change permissions that control the actions that can occur without invalidating a signature.

By modifying an existing signature field, you can edit the PDF document to reflect changing business requirements. For example, a new business requirement requires locking all document fields after the document is signed.

Syntax: public Document modifySignatureField(Document inDoc, String signatureFieldName, PDFSignatureFieldProperties pdfSignatureFieldProperties, UnlockOptions unlockOptions)

Input Parameters

Parameters
Description
inDoc
Document object containing PDF
signatureFieldName
The name of the signature field. This parameter is mandatory and cannot accept a null value.
pdfSignatureFieldProperties
Object that specifies information about the PDFSeedValueOptionSpec and FieldMDPOptionSpec values of the signature field.
unlockOptions
Includes the parameters require to unlock an encrypted file. This is required only if the file is encrypted.

The following Java code sample modifies a signature field by locking all fields in the form when a signature is applied to the signature field.

Certifying PDF documents  certifying-pdf-documents-nbsp

You can secure a PDF document by certifying it with a particular type of signature called a certified signature. A certified signature is distinguished from a digital signature in these ways:

  • It must be the first signature applied to the PDF document. In other words, when the certified signature is applied, other signature fields in the document must be unsigned. Only one certified signature is permitted in a PDF document. To sign and certify a PDF document, certify it before signing it. After you certify a PDF document, you can digitally sign additional signature fields.
  • The author or originator of the document can specify that the document can be modified in certain ways without invalidating the certified signature. For example, the document can permit filling in forms or commenting. If the author specifies that a certain modification is not permitted, Acrobat restricts users from modifying the document in that way. If such modifications are made, the certified signature is invalid. In addition, Acrobat issues a warning when a user opens the document. (With non-certified signatures, modifications are not prevented, and normal editing operations do not invalidate the original signature.)
  • At the time of signing, the document is scanned for specific types of content that could make the contents of a document ambiguous or misleading. For example, an annotation could obscure some text on a page that is important for understanding what is being certified. An explanation (legal attestation) can be provided about such content.

Securing documents securing-documents

secureDocument enables you to encrypt, sign/certify, and reader extend a PDF Document either individually or in any combination in a particular order. To access any of this functionality, pass the corresponding argument. If null, it would be assumed that the particular processing is not required.

Encrypting PDF documents with password

When you encrypt a PDF document with a password, a user must specify the password to open the PDF document in Adobe Reader or Acrobat. Also, before another AEM Forms Document Services operation uses the document, a password-encrypted PDF document must be unlocked.

Encrypting PDF documents with certificates

Certificate-based encryption lets you encrypt a document for specific recipients using public key technology.

Various recipients can be given different permissions for the document. Many aspects of encryption are made possible by public key technology.

An algorithm is used to generate two large numbers, known as keys that have the following properties:

  • One key is used to encrypt a set of data. Later, only the other key can be used to decrypt the data.
  • It is impossible to distinguish one key from the other.
  • One of the keys acts as a user’s private key. It is important that only the user has access to this key.
  • The other key is the user’s public key, which can be shared with others.

A public key certificate contains a user’s public key and identifying information. The X.509 format is used for storing certificates. Certificates are typically issued and digitally signed by a certificate authority (CA), which is a recognized entity that provides a measure of confidence in the validity of the certificate. Certificates have an expiration date, after which they are no longer valid.

In addition, certificate revocation lists (CRLs) provide information about certificates that were revoked prior to their expiration date. CRLs are published periodically by certificate authorities. The revocation status of a certificate can also be retrieved through Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) over the network.

NOTE
Before you can encrypt a PDF document with a certificate, you must ensure that you add the certificate to AEM Trust Store.

Applying usage rights to PDF documents

You can apply usage rights to PDF documents using the Reader Extensions Java Client API and web service. Usage rights pertain to functionality that is available by default in Acrobat but not in Adobe Reader, such as the ability to add comments to a form or to fill in form fields and save the form. PDF documents that have usage rights applied to them are called rights-enabled documents. A user who opens a rights-enabled document in Adobe Reader can perform operations that are enabled for that specific document.

Before you can Reader Extend a PDF document with a certificate, you must ensure that you add the certificate to AEM Keystore.

Digitally signing PDF documents

Digital signatures can be applied to PDF documents to provide a level of security. Digital signatures, like handwritten signatures, provide a means by which signers identify themselves and make statements about a document.

The technology used to digitally sign documents helps to ensure that both the signer and recipients are clear about what was signed and confident that the document was not altered since it was signed.

PDF documents are signed by means of public-key technology. A signer has two keys: a public key and a private key. The private key is stored in a user’s credential that must be available at the time of signing.

The public key is stored in the user’s certificate that must be available to recipients to validate the signature. Information about revoked certificates is found in certificate revocation lists (CRLs) and Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) responses distributed by Certificate Authorities (CAs). The time of signing can be obtained from a trusted source known as a Timestamping Authority.

NOTE
Before you can digitally sign a PDF document, you must ensure that you add the credential in AEM Keystore. The credential is the private key used for signing.
NOTE
AEM Forms also supports CAdES specification for digitally signing PDF documents.

Certifying PDF Documents

You can secure a PDF document by certifying it with a particular type of signature called a certified signature. A certified signature is distinguished from a digital signature in these ways:

It must be the first signature applied to the PDF document; that is, at the time the certified signature is applied, any other signature fields in the document must be unsigned.

Only one certified signature is permitted in a PDF document. If you want to sign and certify a PDF document, you must certify it before signing it.

After you certify a PDF document, you can digitally sign additional signature fields.

The author or originator of the document can specify that the document can be modified in certain ways without invalidating the certified signature.

For example, the document may permit filling in forms or commenting. If the author specifies that a certain modification is not permitted,

Acrobat restricts users from modifying the document in that way. If such modifications are made, such as by using another application, the certified signature is invalid and Acrobat issues a warning when a user opens the document. (With non-certified signatures, modifications are not prevented, and normal editing operations do not invalidate the original signature.)

At the time of signing, the document is scanned for specific types of content that could make the contents of a document ambiguous or misleading.

For example, an annotation could obscure some text on a page that is important for understanding what is being certified. An explanation (legal attestation) can be provided about such content.

NOTE
Before you can digitally sign a PDF document, you must ensure that you add the credential in AEM Keystore. The credential is the private key used for signing.

If the following error message displays while reader extending a PDF document:

org.apache.sling.engine.impl.SlingRequestProcessorImpl service: Uncaught Throwable java.lang.ThreadDeath: null at com.adobe.internal.pdftoolkit.services.javascript.GibsonContextFactory.observeInstructionCount(GibsonContextFactory.java:138)

It signifies that the Reader Extension service is not able to execute the JavaScripts used in the document within the defined timeout interval.

Manage the timeout interval defined for the JavaScripts in the PDF document using:

ReaderExtensionsOptionSpec optionSpec = new ReaderExtensionsOptionSpec(usageRights, message);
optionSpec.setJsScriptExecutionTimeoutInterval(100);

where 100 refers to the timeout interval defined for execution of JavaScripts (in seconds). Set an appropriate value for the timeout interval.

Verifying digital signatures verifying-digital-signatures

Digital signatures can be verified to ensure that a signed PDF document was not modified and that the digital signature is valid. When verifying a digital signature, you can check the signature’s status and the signature’s properties, such as the signer’s identity. Before trusting a digital signature, it is recommended that you verify it. When verifying a digital signature, reference a PDF document that contains a digital signature.

Syntax: verify( inDoc, signatureFieldName, revocationCheckStyle, verificationTime, dssPrefs, ResourceResolver resourceResolver)

Input Parameters

Parameters
Description
inDoc
Document object containing PDF
signatureField Name
The name of the signature field to be validated. either fully qualified name or partial name can be given
revocationCheckStyle
The option to govern the revocation checking of the certificates encountered during validation
verificationTime
The time at which the signature should be validated
dssPrefs
Preferences to control various validation configurations. For an encrypted document, set unlock options by using setUnlockOptions()
resourceResolver
Resource resolver to the granite trust store

This sample code uses DocAssuranceService to verify a signature field in an encrypted PDF document.

Verifying multiple digital signatures verifying-multiple-digital-signatures

AEM lets you verify digital signatures in PDF documents. A PDF document can contain multiple digital signatures if it is subjected to a business process that requires signatures from multiple signers. For example, a financial transaction requires signatures of both the loan officer and the manager. You can use the Signature service API to verify all signatures within the PDF document. When verifying multiple digital signatures, you can check the status and properties of each signature. Before you trust a digital signature, Adobe recommends that you verify it.

Syntax: verifyDocument(Document doc, RevocationCheckStyle revocationCheckStyle, VerificationTime verificationTime, ValidationPreferences prefStore, ResourceResolver resourceResolver)

Input Parameters

Parameters
Description
inDoc
Document object containing PDF
revocationCheckStyle
The option to govern the revocation checking of the certificates encountered during validation
verificationTime
The time at which the signature should be validated
dssPrefs
Preferences to control various validation configurations. For an encrypted document, set unlock options by using setUnlockOptions()
resourceResolver
Resource resolver to the granite trust store

The following sample code uses DocAssuranceService to verify the signature fields in an already encrypted PDF document.
