You can create a sample PKCS#12 file using Java’s keytool program. The command line to create a test file is as follows:

keytool -genkey -keystore test.pfx -storetype pkcs12 -storepass store_pwd -keypass key_pwd -alias key_alias

CustomSignature.java – This sample applies applies a digital signature to a document with a custom appearance. The appearance of signatures can be modified in jPDFProcess to include an image, choose the fields that show or custom text.

ExtractText.java – Extract text content from a document.

OCRPDFPages.java – OCR / Recognize and add Text to the pages of a PDF.

ResizePDFPages.java – Resize, rescale PDF pages, change media box in a PDF document.

CreateLayers.java – Creates a PDF document with two layers and adds some content to each layer.

AddBookmarks.java – Adds a bookmark for every page in a document.

AddTOC.java – Creates a table of contents at the head of the document. This sample adds a page at the top of the document and then adds a page title and a link to every page in the document.
