Problem - signatures with embedded biometric data (Wacom)

[jaal86]

Hi, I have exactly the same issue, and the provided answer I believe is no longer available. I'm not sure if there is a solution with GdPicture 14. To add the signature image from the Wacom Pad, we use the following code:

GdPictureImaging gdpictureImaging = new GdPictureImaging();
int imageID = gdpictureImaging.CreateGdPictureImageFromFile(@"c:\Temp\Output.png");
double width = gdpictureImaging.GetWidthInches(imageID);
double height = gdpictureImaging.GetHeightInches(imageID);
status = gdpicturePDF.SetSignatureStampImage(gdpicturePDF.AddImageFromGdPictureImage(imageID, false, false));

I hope you can help me with this. Without further ado.

Hi Gabriela, BillWhalen,

I'm working on the digital sign pad feature too, and we are using the Wacom WILL SDK.
As the SDK provide a simple picture, with embedded biometric, it's very simple to add it as an AnnotationEmbeddedImage.

But... the picture is further compressed by gdpicture at save (we want to compress all the other pictures), and we lose a lot of data in the process.
Is there a way to prevent gdpicture to compress an AnnotationEmbeddedImage ? Something like the "preventburning" property should be fine.

Thanks.
