About flatten pdf after signing ceremony
Thursday, June 21, 2018 at 05:21amHi,
After signing ceremony, we have pdf file with signatures that is in general active pdf. In this active pdf, customers can view some legal properties that we do not expect in our application. However, we have heard one concept that is flattening the pdf in which customers can’t interact or can’t view the legal properties what we want. So, how can we make the pdf flatten and what API do we need to call?

Thursday, June 21, 2018 at 09:12amHi engg_nayan, As the previous post has mentioned: Active documents contain the signatures, tamper seal, and audit trails of the signed document. Flattened documents contain no evidence they are akin to images. And through following REST API, you can download the flattened version:
GET https://sandbox.esignlive.com/api/packages/{packageId}/documents/{documentId}/pdf?flatten=trueI believe you can only download the flatten pdf in REST way. And in this way, you will lose the audit trail embedded in the pdf and couldn't view the legal properties in the pdf. I also created some pieces of code for you in Java as you can see from the attachment. Hope this reply can help you!
