Stamp Tool, Sign and Fill Forms v1.7.3

8 hours ago

Dad joke of the release

Why did the developer go broke? Because he ran out of cache 🤣

What's New

  1. Stamp Tool
  • Now you can stamp on PDF files
  • Choose from the default stamps or create a custom one
  1. Sign Tool updated
  • The Sign tool is now updated to use pdf.js. Now you can save the signatures and the signatures are correctly placed
  1. Fill PDF Form Tool updated
  • The fill form tool also now uses PDF.js, so now you can interactively fill in PDF form. Also supports XFA forms out of the box!

Bug Fixes

The last update broke the sign and stamp tool, so that's now fixed. I also deleted the latest docker release by mistake lol, so that's fixed too

Limitations:

  • The sign tool color does not work yet
  • The Stamp tool does not load interactive PDF forms

(Technical rant: A user had asked for XFA support on filling and I went down the rabbit hole on how to implement it. Since PDFLIB.js does not support it natively, I had to make a solution from scratch. Even though I was able to, it was way too complex just to be able to support filling in PDF forms. So, I scraped down the solution and used pdf.js. Currently its a little bloated as I am using pdfjs and pdfjs-annotations build. I will tinker around a bit more and eventually make a stripped down unified interface)

Thank you for you continued support ! ❤️
