## Overview

AxPdfSigner is an enterprise-grade Python SDK for digitally signing PDF documents with X.509 certificates. Built with pure Python implementation, it provides a clean, intuitive interface for advanced PDF signing operations.

## Features

✅ **Digital Signatures** - Sign PDFs with X.509 certificates (PFX/P12)  
✅ **Long-Term Validation (LTV)** - Embed validation information for long-term verification  
✅ **RFC 3161 Timestamping** - Add trusted timestamps to signatures  
✅ **Custom Appearance** - Fully customizable signature appearance  
✅ **Multi-Page Signing** - Sign single or multiple pages  
✅ **Invisible Signatures** - Support for invisible digital signatures  
✅ **PDF Metadata** - Control document title, author, subject, keywords  
✅ **Certificate Locking** - Lock PDF after signing to prevent modifications  
✅ **Batch Processing** - Sign multiple documents efficiently  
✅ **Pure Python** - No external dependencies except pythonnet

## Installation

```bash
pip install AxPdfSigner-1.0.0-py3-none-any.whl
```

### Requirements

- Python 3.7 or higher
- Windows operating system
- pythonnet package (installed automatically)

## Quick Start

### Basic Usage

```python
from AxPdfSigner import PdfSigner, SignatureConfig

# Create signer instance
signer = PdfSigner()

# Configure signature
config = SignatureConfig(
    input_pdf="document.pdf",
    output_pdf="signed_document.pdf",
    pfx_path="certificate.pfx",
    pfx_password="your_password"
)

# Sign the document
signer.sign(config)
```

### Advanced Usage

```python
from AxPdfSigner import PdfSigner, SignatureConfig

# Advanced configuration
config = SignatureConfig(
    input_pdf="contract.pdf",
    output_pdf="signed_contract.pdf",
    pfx_path="company_cert.pfx",
    pfx_password="secure_password",
    
    # Signature details
    reason="Contract Approval",
    location="New York, USA",
    custom_text="Approved by Legal Department",
    signer_name="John Doe",
    
    # Position and appearance
    coordinates="100,100,300,150",  # x1,y1,x2,y2
    pages="1,3,5",  # Sign specific pages
    
    # Security features
    enable_ltv=True,
    enable_timestamp=True,
    lock_pdf=True,
    
    # PDF metadata
    title="Employment Contract",
    author="HR Department",
    subject="Contract Signing",
    keywords="contract,employment,legal"
)

signer = PdfSigner()
signer.sign(config)
```

### Batch Signing

```python
from AxPdfSigner import PdfSigner, SignatureConfig

configs = []
for i in range(1, 11):
    config = SignatureConfig(
        input_pdf=f"document_{i}.pdf",
        output_pdf=f"signed_{i}.pdf",
        pfx_path="certificate.pfx",
        pfx_password="password"
    )
    configs.append(config)

signer = PdfSigner()
results = signer.sign_batch(configs)

print(f"Success: {len(results['success'])}")
print(f"Failed: {len(results['failed'])}")
```
