Hello Hari,
It sounds like you're using some API already for adding the signature
block, right?
Whichever API you're using to add the signature block *might* have some
methods to do this already I would think.
If you're looking for an open source tool, I'm not sure which one would
do this (though I believe xpdf has this functionality if you're
comfortable with C++).
Our company, CambridgeDocs, has commercial products which allow you to
read the x,y coordinates of text runs on the page of a PDF. This is
done by converting the page to XML using our xDoc Converter product, or
by using our Java PDF API to cycle through the text runs on the page
and get their x,y coordinates.
In any case, it doesn't really seem like an fop issue and so we should
take the discussion off-line.
Thanks
Riz

hi Riz,
Yes i am trying to add the signature block AFTER the PDF has already
been generated?
I have a line of text just above the position where the signauture has
to appear. I am not aware of the method to get the co-ordinates of this
text.
Could you please guide me how to..?
Hari
