Fixes

  • Sign document error when using Azure Key Vault: DefaultSignatureLength parameter.

Released: Dec 18, 2025

Updates in V25.12

Features

  • Introduced comprehensive support for embedding digital signatures directly into raster images using steganography (LSB - Least Significant Bit technique). This method embeds signature data invisibly into image pixels, making the signature undetectable to the naked eye while maintaining image quality. The feature supports signing and verifying PNG and JPG image formats with password protection. Key benefits for developers:
    • Invisible signatures - Signatures are embedded directly into...

Updates in V25.6

Features

  • Added adaptive rendering support for Barcode and QR Code signature previews.
  • Added support for rotation in Barcode and QR Code previews.
  • Added support for APNG and TGA image formats.
  • Added background transparency support for Barcode/QR previews.
  • Added overlay image support for digital signatures with background.
  • Removed insecure encryption algorithms (RC2, AES, DES, TripleDES).

Released: Mar 18, 2025

Updates in V25.3

Features

  • Added the ability to sign PDFs with a custom hash signing function, enabling digital signing with an external certificate. Developers can now implement their own digital signer by assigning a custom implementation to the 'CustomSignHash' property in the signing options. This flexibility allows enforcement of specific cryptographic standards and security policies while also supporting different hash algorithms, so users can choose the algorithm that best fits their security needs.
