Aloaha PDF SDK

Our products Aloaha PDF Suite / Aloaha PDF Editor are based on the Aloaha PDF SDK. This SDK contains some very easy to script interfaces. These Interfaces are allowed to be used by licensed user. Just as a short example how easy to use our API's are I will publish a sample script below. Please contact support if you need more details.


Aloaha PDF Suite / Aloaha PDF Editor is able to digitally sign your PDF documents Adobe.PPKMS compatible. Adobe.PPKMS signed documents can be verified and validated with the PDF Reader. You might need to validate/verify PDF Documents from your ASP page to allow only signed documents to be uploaded. Please find below a small vbs as a demonstration.

You could also count the number of signatures with the code below:

MsgBox pdfsigned("c:\sample.pdf")

Function pdfsigned(filepath)
   On Error Resume Next
   Dim pdf
   Set pdf=CreateObject("aloahapdf.edit")
      pdfsigned=UBound(pdf.get_signature_infos_vbs(CStr(filepath)))
   Set pdf=nothing
End Function

  • Hi My application is peoplesoft, i need to integrate the signing fascility, will yor product support peoplesoft integration?

    Normally we integrate with 3rd party tools in ways like
    1. using web service
    2. using java classes

    Please give me a solution

    You could wrapp a web service around out signature API and use it then from people soft. In case you do not have the resources to create such a web service we can do it for you. In that case please contact info@aloaha.com for further information.
