Images and other document formats are frequently used in everyday business. Many images are therefore signed in order to avoid copyright infringement or to exhibit the ownership of work. For such requirements, you can use Aspose.PSD for Java API to manipulate images or graphic contents. This article explains how to add a signature to an image programmatically in Java.
Digitally Signing the Images – Java API Installation
You can quickly configure Aspose.PSD for Java API by downloading the latest available version of its JAR file from the Downloads section, or installing it from Aspose Repository using the following configurations in the pom.xml file of your project:
Repository
<repository>
<id>AsposeJavaAPI</id>
<name>Aspose Java API</name>
<url>http://repository.aspose.com/repo/</url>
</repository>Dependency
<dependency>

The input image can be a contract or an agreement between two or more parties. Such an image can be signed digitally for the efficient processing of documents. Subsequently, you need to follow the steps below for signing an image in Java:
- Firstly, create an instance of the Image class to load the primary PSD file.
- Similarly load the secondary PSD image.
- Mention the position coordinates to set the signature image.
- Finally, call the Save method to write the output signed image.
The code snippet below demonstrates how to sign an image in Java:
Explore API Features
Feel free to check out the documentation section. It covers how to work with the PSD files in your Java-based applications.
Get Free Evaluation License
You can evaluate the API in its full capacity by requesting a free temporary license. It will let you work with all the features without any evaluation limitations.
