Can someone supply an example or a link to an example that signs an existing pdf using itextsharp 5.4.4? Ideally keeping pdf/a conformity of the pdf? Thank you.
Edit: I understand the question looks as if I did not use google etc. BUT, new versions of itextsharp contain completely rewritten code for signing as well as other functions, making the existing examples non-functional. Also, itextsharp started using different names for methods eg. instead of createSignature one has CreateSignature, instead of getSignatureAppearance one seems to have SignatureAppearance etc. making the port from java examples a real nightmare. Also the samples in the source code itself are in java not c#. There is really nowhere else I can go.
Please read http://itextpdf.com/book/digitalsignatures
The examples are in Java, but they were also ported to C#. You can find the C# examples here. I didn't vote your question down, but... the first place to go when you have a question about iText should probably be http://itextpdf.com
The book I refer to (I'm the author) as well as the new examples are on the learn page.

i am using GWT/EXTGWT. on click of submit button i get list of records from db. i need to export them to pdf. please suggest me how to do this?
if data to be exported is more then that should be exported to multiple pages.
Thanks!
There's little in context of GWT here, apart from the fact that you have a GWT based application. What you are really looking for is a tool that generates PDF, given data.
There are hosts of them available :
iText
jPDF Writer...
Obviously, iText has been the most widely known and successful one! Here's a good tutorial - http://www.vogella.de/articles/JavaPDF/article.html
Try some tools like itext pdf generator Searching online will give you many more options.
With the iOS support for Quartz 2D and its support for the PDF format; should adding a signature image to a pdf be a little easier. I have looked all over and saw people are using the PDFKit, UIView or Core Graphic Library. Which is the easiest and the recommended library for the effort? Also, are there simple examples of the recommend library. When I tried to see how Quartz 2D worked, all I could find are narrative explanations about how it worked and specific method you may use but no complete examples. You know the hello world one. Anyway, I am new to iOS development but been writing code for over 20 years so I might be able to pick this OS up as well.
Can some poor soul have pity on me and please point me in the right direction?
I have done this by loading the old pdf file on view and then add signature on that view and then render the view. check the following post
Add a signature image to a pdf without showing the pdf data to user in iOS
But not able create the pdf which contain existing pdf with signature "without showing on view" .
It's too late to answer this question now. But let me just provide some pointers for people who may bump into this question in future.
This one summarizes PDF handling in iOS pretty well. Good for starters.

This one is also similar, but not very exhaustive. http://www.absoluteripple.com/1/post/2012/03/generating-pdf-in-ios.html
The above links do not talk about handling existing PDFs. I found this stackoverflow answer really useful for that.
Add pdf page to an existing pdf objective-c
Just a note, if you want manipulate existing PDFs, Quartz 2d is the way to go.
Also look at reference pages of CGPDFDocument, CGPDFPage, CGPDFContext and CGContext.
Beginner, trying to learn to MS Web Matrix.
href, style, header, footer, tags don't seem to work.
Even copied and pasted coding from Web Dev 101 part 3 instructions on the "Learn About Web Matrix" site to be sure syntax was correct.
Is there some source for answers about Web Matrix programing problems.
Certainly no way to get anything through Micro Soft.
Every time I download the latest version of Web Matrix something gets fixed, but I'm weary of trying things that just don't work as shown in "Learning" documentation.
Is there some source for questions that a novice could direct such basic questions to, I'd sure like to know.
Thanks,

You can post questions here, or at the WebMatrix forum at www.asp.net.
When you do, make sure you are specific. Explain what your problem is exactly and post details of any error message you might get, and relevant source code.
I have several copies of the same PDF file. These copies have annotations in it (Rect type with pop-up comments).
I want to know if I can get all these annotations from these copies and aggregate them into a single master copy using CAM::PDF (or another free tool).
an example to illustrate:
I have file1_userA.pdf and file1_userB.pdf. They are both annotated.
I want to generate file1_allusers.pdf aggregating annotations from both files file1_userA.pdf and file1_userB.pdf.
ps: I have the original un-annotated copy.
-- EDIT (Aug, 4):
I have developed an extension for CAM::PDF, namely CAM::PDF::Annot. It 'use base's CAM::PDF and adds extra functionality regarding Drawing Markup Annotations.
I am in the process of tidying up the code so I can post it to CPAN.
-- EDIT (Aug, 19)
I have finally submitted it to PAUSE, but I am running into some world writable related problems...
In any case, if anyone is interested in taking a look at the code, I will try and make it available somewhere... until then, just PM me and I will mail it to you.
geez, i'm getting such a thrill posting a module to cpan... i found the joy of working in working with Perl...
best regards,
Donato Azevedo
I'm the author of CAM::PDF. I have built only very limited support for annotations to date, specifically just for form field filling. So, no, that's not a supported feature today. The feature you describe is very interesting, though, and I can imagine that others would use it too, so I'd be interested in discussing it further with you offline.
I am not quite sure how to implement my the code after generating the skeleton. I didnt use const only, i do have main files and i tried several c(++) versions along with c# and still i dont understand. I dont think any of them can load a file and parse test files (i know gold builder can parse my test files).
The Kessels C skeleton looks complete. Buts not, it uses a struct and members (Token->Reduction->TokenStack) yet when i search TokenStack i cant find a place where it is defined, only used. I feel like i am missing something. I cant find Kessels other code anywhere.
My question is how do i implement my body? (is there another skeleton you prefer), are there any other downloads i overlooked? i tried looking at these downloads but i didnt understand what to do with them. It also looked more like example source code then a template http://www.devincook.com/goldparser/engine/c/index.htm
PS: I wouldnt mind doing a C# implementation, i am better with c(++).
I've used the Calitha C# Engine. Let me know (by posting a comment to this answer) if you still want an answer, which I can answer using my knowledge of this C# engine.

The Calitha Engine download includes source for the Engine, and a sample program (named "TextCalc") which illustrates using it.
