Hello,

we are using Birt within a j2ee-application for generating pdfs. Now i have two questions:

1.) Can I add metadata-information to the resulting pdf using birt. I have found some ways to do that using itext with PdfWriter, but can birt do that as well?

2.) Is there a way to add a digital signature to birt? are there any solutions by now? or would i have to find some solution using itext or something else for manipulating the resulting pdf after the birt-generating?

Thanks in advance for any hints oder solutions.

Marco

Take a look at this thread on the topic: http://developer.actuate.com/community/forum/index.php?/topic/35928-birt-and-digital-signature/

There are couple of things discussed on this thread for the topic of digital signatures in BIRT.
iText is one option. More recently Michael Williams pointed out you could potentially use an API like e-SignLive by Silanis
