Major Features

Add ability to create text signature in the word headers and footers

🌐 We are thrilled to unveil an exciting enhancement— the addition of a text signature feature in the Word document headers and footers. Now, users can easily create and customize text signatures directly within the headers and footers of their Word documents. New enum ShapePosition has been added, which defines appropriate signature location in the document layout. It can be configured through the new property ShapePosition in the TextSignOptions.

 // Sign document with text signature.
    using (Signature signature = new Signature("sample.docx"))
    {
        var listOptions = new List<SignOptions>();

        var headerSign = new TextSignOptions("Hello header!")
        {
            ShapePosition = ShapePosition.Header
        };

        var footerSign = new TextSignOptions("Hello footer!")
        {
            ShapePosition = ShapePosition.Footer
        };

        listOptions.Add(headerSign);
        listOptions.Add(footerSign);

        signature.Sign(outputFilePath, listOptions);
    }
