Out of the box PDF.js doesn’t support displaying signatures on PDF files. This is strange since it’s such a common scenario and it’s been requested many times over the years.
Thankfully there’s a simple solution to this. You need to modify the pdf.worker.js file with the following modification.
In the var WidgetAnnotation = /*#__PURE__*/ function, look for the following code:
if (data.fieldType === 'Sig') { data.fieldValue = null; _this3.setFlags(_util.AnnotationFlag.HIDDEN); }
And comment out the setFlags line like this:
if (data.fieldType === 'Sig') { data.fieldValue = null; // _this3.setFlags(_util.AnnotationFlag.HIDDEN); }
You don’t need to make any modifications to the pdf.js file itself just the pdf.worker.js file.
To do this you download PDF.js from the project page. Take the pdf.worker.js file from the build folder and make the modification. In your web project, use the local modified version of this file but keep referencing the base file through a CDN (or locally if you wish).
Don’t forget to minify your modified worker file afterwards.
Of course, you’ll have to make this manual modification each time you update PDF.js.
