You can extend the validity of signatures in PDF documents (long term validity, LTV) by calling SIGNDOC_Document_updateDSS() or SIGNDOC_Document_updateDSS2() and then adding a document time stamp by calling SIGNDOC_Document_createSignatureParametersForTimeStamp(), configuring an RFC 3161 time stamp server, and calling SIGNDOC_Document_addSignature().
A new class, SIGNDOC_Signature, has been added to enable long term validation of signatures and implementation of a GUI element equivalent to Adobe Reader's signature panel. See SIGNDOC_Document_getSignature(). There is a new version of SIGNDOC_Document_verifySignature() which takes a SIGNDOC_Signature object as input: SIGNDOC_Document_verifySignature2(). There are subtle differences between those functions.
Intermediate certificates and trusted root certificates can be added to a SIGNDOC_VerificationParameters object by using SIGNDOC_VerificationParameters_setBlob().
SIGNDOC_Document_addSignature() now can create certification signatures for PDF documents, see SIGNDOC_Field_getDocMDP(), SIGNDOC_Field_getSignatureType(), SIGNDOC_Field_getSeedValueMDP(), SIGNDOC_Field_setSeedValueMDP(), and integer parameter "DocMDP" of SIGNDOC_SignatureParameters.
SIGNDOC_Document_addSignature() now performs a basic verification of the signature after signing a PDF document unless that verification is disabled by SIGNDOC_Document_setShootInFoot().
Use SIGNDOC_VerificationResult_getModificationState() to verify if modifications of a PDF document are allowed by a signature. SIGNDOC_RenderParameters_setModificationState() controls whether that function is called for computing decorations.
The most recently used verification time can be retrieved by passing "VerificationTime" to SIGNDOC_VerificationResult_getSignatureString(). "Filter" now gets the Filter (rather than the SubFilter entry), "SubFilter" gets the SubFilter entry.
SIGNDOC_Document_removePermissions() no longer removes DocMDP permissions, it removes UR and UR3 permissions only. To remove all certification signatures, use new function SIGNDOC_Document_removeDocMDP().
SIGNDOC_Document_setField() and SIGNDOC_Document_applyFdf() now reject changes that would break existing signatures. SIGNDOC_Document_clearSignature() now fails if it would break other existing signatures. SIGNDOC_Document_clearAllSignatures() now fails if it would break Reader-enablement of a PDF document. To remove all approval signatures, use new function SIGNDOC_Document_clearApprovalSignatures().
SIGNDOC_Document_addField(), SIGNDOC_Document_addSignature(), SIGNDOC_Document_applyFdf(), and SIGNDOC{Document,setField()} now fail if XFA cannot be removed without breaking existing signatures.
There are new integer parameters for SIGNDOC_SignatureParameters: "BiometricHashLocation" and "RemoveXFA".
As software-based private keys and hardware-based private keys cannot be reliably distinguished, you should always set both SIGNDOC_SIGNATUREPARAMETERS_CERTIFICATESELECTIONFLAGS_SOFTWARE and SIGNDOC_SIGNATUREPARAMETERS_CERTIFICATESELECTIONFLAGS_HARDWARE in integer parameter "SelectCertificate" rather than only one of those flags.
The logical structure of a PDF document can be removed with SIGNDOC_Document_removeLogicalStructure(). XFA content of a PDF document can be removed with SIGNDOC_Document_removeXFA().
You can speed up rendering with decorations (and support LTV) by providing your own (cached) verification results via SIGNDOC_RenderParameters_setDecorationState().
Obsolete functions SIGNDOC_Document_getDataBlock() and SIGNDOC_Document_setDataBlock() have been removed.
There is a new value, SIGNDOC_SIGNATUREPARAMETERS_DETACHEDHASHALGORITHM_SHA224 for integer parameter "DetachedHashAlgorithm" of SIGNDOC_SignatureParameters. It can be used for ECDSA signatures only and is not supported on Windows.
The default value of integer parameter "CertificateSigningAlgorithm" has been changed from SIGNDOC_SIGNATUREPARAMETERS_CERTIFICATESIGNINGALGORITHM_SHA1_RSA to SIGNDOC_SIGNATUREPARAMETERS_CERTIFICATESIGNINGALGORITHM_SHA256_RSA for RSA keys.
A new string parameter, "GenerateECCKeyPair", can be used for generating a self-signed certificates for ECDSA.
The certificate selection dialog has an additional column showing the key algorithm and key size.
There is a new flag for integer parameter "RenderSignature", SIGNDOC_SIGNATUREPARAMETERS_RENDERSIGNATUREFLAGS_LIMIT_SIZE which prevents magnification of signatures.
You can now retrieve page labels by calling SIGNDOC_Document_getPageLabel().
You can now flatten non-widget annotations by calling SIGNDOC_Document_flattenAnnotations().
The default value of integer parameter "PDFAButtons" has been changed from SIGNDOC_SIGNATUREPARAMETERS_PDFABUTTONS_AUTO to SIGNDOC_SIGNATUREPARAMETERS_PDFABUTTONS_DONT_FREEZE.
There is a new integer parameter, "ImageDPI", which can be used to control the size of the image passed in blob parameter "Image" in PDF signature fields.
