We want to insert a png image with a (drawn)signature into a PDF with PDFSharp. The position and size of the image is determined by a invisible PdfTextField that we created previously in the PDF. With our current code the problem is: How can we get the page reference from our PdfTextField (the page that contains this field)?
Code:
PdfDocument document = PdfReader.Open("C:\\filex.pdf", PdfDocumentOpenMode.Modify);
// Get the root object of all interactive form fields
PdfAcroForm form = document.AcroForm;
// Get all form fields of the whole document
PdfAcroField.PdfAcroFieldCollection fields = form.Fields;
//Get the invisible PdfTextField used as position and size reference
PdfTextField signatureposition= (PdfTextField)fields["thesignature"];
PdfArray signaturerect= (PdfArray)signatureposition.Elements["/Rect"];
string x = signaturerect.Elements[0].ToString();
string y = signaturerect.Elements[1].ToString();
string w = signaturerect.Elements[2].ToString();
string h = signaturerect.Elements[3].ToString();
string imagepath= "C:\\signature.png";
//how to get the correct page reference respect the especified field?
PdfPage page= signatureposition.Owner.Pages[???];
XGraphics gfx = XGraphics.FromPdfPage(page);
XImage image = XImage.FromFile(imagepath);
gfx.DrawImage(image, x, y, width, height);
In the end we solved it creating this function:
protected int PaginaCampo(string campofirma, PdfDocument document)
{
for (int i = 0; i < document.Pages.Count; i++)
{
PdfAnnotations anotations = document.Pages[i].Annotations;
for (int j = 0; j < anotations.Count; j++)
{
if (anotations[j].Title != campofirma) continue;
return i;
}
}
return -1;
}
Not the best solution but it works...if someone adds a better one we will give the correct answer to him/her
