Remarks:

Document.getDigitalSignatures()

Examples:

Shows how to validate and display information about each signature in a document.


 Document doc = new Document(getMyDir() + "Digitally signed.docx");

 for (DigitalSignature signature : doc.getDigitalSignatures()) {
     System.out.println("*** Signature Found ***");
     System.out.println("Is valid: " + signature.isValid());
     // This property is available in MS Word documents only
     System.out.println("Reason for signing: " + signature.getComments());
     System.out.println("Signature type: " + signature.getSignatureType());
     System.out.println("Time of signing: " + signature.getSignTime());
     System.out.println("Subject name: " + signature.getSubjectName());
     System.out.println("Issuer name: " + signature.getIssuerName());
     System.out.println();
 }
