pdf-simple-sign
===============
:compact-option:

'pdf-simple-sign' is a simple open source PDF signer intended for documents
generated by Cairo.  As such, it currently comes with some restrictions:

 * the document may not have any forms or signatures already, as they will be
   overwitten
 * the document may not employ cross-reference streams, or must constitute
   a hybrid-reference file at least
 * the document may not be newer than PDF 1.6 already, or it will get downgraded
   to that version
 * the signature may take at most 4 kilobytes as a compile-time limit,
   which should be enough space even for one intermediate certificate

The signature is attached to the first page and has no appearance.

I don't aim to extend the functionality any further.  The project is fairly
self-contained and it should be easy to grasp and change to suit to your needs.
