signpdf2

• This package is used to insert a signature image (png) into a pdf at a specified location using python.

• We use units instead of pixel. Units are pdf-standard units (1/72 inch).

• You may have your input files stored on your system or on cloud with a GET url to them.

  • Following example shows how you can insert a signature in a pdf (stored locally or available through a GET url)
  • Then save the signed pdf locally or make a PUT request to a PUT url

• pdf_utilities.py files is not used anywhere in this package. It's just provided as an accessory.
