Description
Creates a signature appearance template in the exact size of the base signature field.The created template is already opened if the function succeeds and you can draw arbitrary contents into it. After the appearance has been defined the template must be closed with EndTemplate.
Note that the template is reserved for the signature field. It must not be placed on pages or other templates.
When creating a user defined appearance for a signature field you should also place the validation icon properly so that it does not overprint the entire contents. See also DynaPDF.PlaceSigFieldValidateIcon.
If the function succeeds the return value is the action handle, a value greater or equal zero. If the function fails the return value is the error message.
