pyhanko.stamp module

Utilities for stamping PDF files.

Here ‘stamping’ loosely refers to adding small overlays (QR codes, text boxes, etc.) on top of already existing content in PDF files.

The code in this module is also used by the sign module to render signature appearances.

class pyhanko.stamp.AnnotAppearances(normal: IndirectObject, rollover: IndirectObject | None = None, down: IndirectObject | None = None)

Bases: object

Convenience abstraction to set up an appearance dictionary for a PDF annotation.

Annotations can have three appearance streams, which can be roughly characterised as follows:

  • normal: the only required one, and the default one;

  • rollover: used when mousing over the annotation;

  • down: used when clicking the annotation.

These are given as references to form XObjects.

Note

This class only covers the simple case of an appearance dictionary for an annotation with only one appearance state.

See § 12.5.5 in ISO 32000-1 for further information.

as_pdf_object() DictionaryObject

Convert the AnnotationAppearances instance to a PDF dictionary.

Returns:

A DictionaryObject that can be plugged into the /AP entry of an annotation dictionary.

class pyhanko.stamp.BaseStampStyle(border_width: int = 3, background: ~pyhanko.pdf_utils.content.PdfContent | None = None, background_layout: ~pyhanko.pdf_utils.layout.SimpleBoxLayoutRule = SimpleBoxLayoutRule(x_align=<AxisAlignment.ALIGN_MID: 2>, y_align=<AxisAlignment.ALIGN_MID: 2>, margins=Margins(left=5, right=5, top=5, bottom=5), inner_content_scaling=<InnerScaling.SHRINK_TO_FIT: 4>), background_opacity: float = 0.6)

Bases: ConfigurableMixin

Base class for stamp styles.

border_width: int = 3

Border width in user units (for the stamp, not the text box).

background: PdfContent | None = None

PdfContent instance that will be used to render the stamp’s background.

background_layout: SimpleBoxLayoutRule = SimpleBoxLayoutRule(x_align=<AxisAlignment.ALIGN_MID: 2>, y_align=<AxisAlignment.ALIGN_MID: 2>, margins=Margins(left=5, right=5, top=5, bottom=5), inner_content_scaling=<InnerScaling.SHRINK_TO_FIT: 4>)

Layout rule to render the background inside the stamp’s bounding box. Only used if the background has a fully specified PdfContent.box.

Otherwise, the renderer will position the cursor at (left_margin, bottom_margin) and render the content as-is.

background_opacity: float = 0.6

Opacity value to render the background at. This should be a floating-point number between 0 and 1.

classmethod process_entries(config_dict)

This implementation of process_entries() processes the background configuration value. This can either be a path to an image file, in which case it will be turned into an instance of PdfImage, or the special value __stamp__, which is an alias for STAMP_ART_CONTENT.

create_stamp(writer: BasePdfFileWriter, box: BoxConstraints, text_params: dict) BaseStamp
class pyhanko.stamp.TextStampStyle(border_width: int = 3, background: ~pyhanko.pdf_utils.content.PdfContent | None = None, background_layout: ~pyhanko.pdf_utils.layout.SimpleBoxLayoutRule = SimpleBoxLayoutRule(x_align=<AxisAlignment.ALIGN_MID: 2>, y_align=<AxisAlignment.ALIGN_MID: 2>, margins=Margins(left=5, right=5, top=5, bottom=5), inner_content_scaling=<InnerScaling.SHRINK_TO_FIT: 4>), background_opacity: float = 0.6, text_box_style: ~pyhanko.pdf_utils.text.TextBoxStyle = TextBoxStyle(font=<pyhanko.pdf_utils.font.basic.SimpleFontEngineFactory object>, font_size=10, leading=None, border_width=0, box_layout_rule=None, vertical_text=False), inner_content_layout: ~pyhanko.pdf_utils.layout.SimpleBoxLayoutRule | None = None, stamp_text: str = '%(ts)s', timestamp_format: str = '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %Z')

Bases: BaseStampStyle

Style for text-based stamps.

Roughly speaking, this stamp type renders some predefined (but parametrised) piece of text inside a text box, and possibly applies a background to it.

text_box_style: TextBoxStyle = TextBoxStyle(font=<pyhanko.pdf_utils.font.basic.SimpleFontEngineFactory object>, font_size=10, leading=None, border_width=0, box_layout_rule=None, vertical_text=False)

The text box style for the internal text box used.

inner_content_layout: SimpleBoxLayoutRule | None = None

Rule determining the position and alignment of the inner text box within the stamp.

Warning

This only affects the position of the box, not the alignment of the text within.

stamp_text: str = '%(ts)s'

Text template for the stamp. The template can contain an interpolation parameter ts that will be replaced by the stamping time.

Additional parameters may be added if necessary. Values for these must be passed to the __init__() method of the TextStamp class in the text_params argument.

timestamp_format: str = '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %Z'

Datetime format used to render the timestamp.

create_stamp(writer: BasePdfFileWriter, box: BoxConstraints, text_params: dict) TextStamp

Bases: TextStampStyle

Style for text-based stamps together with a QR code.

This is exactly the same as a text stamp, except that the text box is rendered with a QR code to the left of it.

innsep: int = 3

Inner separation inside the stamp.

stamp_text: str = 'Digital version available at\nthis url: %(url)s\nTimestamp: %(ts)s'

Text template for the stamp. The description of TextStampStyle.stamp_text still applies, but an additional default interpolation parameter url is available. This parameter will be replaced with the URL that the QR code points to.

qr_inner_size: int | None = None

Size of the QR code in the inner layout. By default, this is in user units, but if the stamp has a fully defined bounding box, it may be rescaled depending on inner_content_layout.

If unspecified, a reasonable default will be used.

qr_position: QRPosition = SimpleBoxLayoutRule(x_align=<AxisAlignment.ALIGN_MIN: 1>, y_align=<AxisAlignment.ALIGN_MID: 2>, margins=Margins(left=0, right=0, top=0, bottom=0), inner_content_scaling=<InnerScaling.SHRINK_TO_FIT: 4>)

Position of the QR code relative to the text box.

qr_inner_content: PdfContent | None = None

Inner graphics content to be included in the QR code (experimental).

classmethod process_entries(config_dict)

This implementation of process_entries() processes the background configuration value. This can either be a path to an image file, in which case it will be turned into an instance of PdfImage, or the special value __stamp__, which is an alias for STAMP_ART_CONTENT.

create_stamp(writer: BasePdfFileWriter, box: BoxConstraints, text_params: dict) QRStamp
class pyhanko.stamp.StaticStampStyle(border_width: int = 3, background: ~pyhanko.pdf_utils.content.PdfContent | None = None, background_layout: ~pyhanko.pdf_utils.layout.SimpleBoxLayoutRule = SimpleBoxLayoutRule(x_align=<AxisAlignment.ALIGN_MID: 2>, y_align=<AxisAlignment.ALIGN_MID: 2>, margins=Margins(left=5, right=5, top=5, bottom=5), inner_content_scaling=<InnerScaling.SHRINK_TO_FIT: 4>), background_opacity: float = 1.0)

Bases: BaseStampStyle

Stamp style that does not include any custom parts; it only renders the background.

background_opacity: float = 1.0

Opacity value to render the background at. This should be a floating-point number between 0 and 1.

classmethod from_pdf_file(file_name, page_ix=0, **kwargs) StaticStampStyle

Create a StaticStampStyle from a page from an external PDF document. This is a convenience wrapper around ImportedPdfContent.

The remaining keyword arguments are passed to StaticStampStyle’s init method.

Parameters:
  • file_name – File name of the external PDF document.

  • page_ix – Page index to import. The default is 0, i.e. the first page.

create_stamp(writer: BasePdfFileWriter, box: BoxConstraints, text_params: dict) StaticContentStamp
class pyhanko.stamp.QRPosition(value, names=None, *, module=None, qualname=None, type=None, start=1, boundary=None)

Bases: Enum

QR positioning constants, with the corresponding default content layout rule.

LEFT_OF_TEXT = SimpleBoxLayoutRule(x_align=<AxisAlignment.ALIGN_MIN: 1>, y_align=<AxisAlignment.ALIGN_MID: 2>, margins=Margins(left=0, right=0, top=0, bottom=0), inner_content_scaling=<InnerScaling.SHRINK_TO_FIT: 4>)
RIGHT_OF_TEXT = SimpleBoxLayoutRule(x_align=<AxisAlignment.ALIGN_MAX: 3>, y_align=<AxisAlignment.ALIGN_MID: 2>, margins=Margins(left=0, right=0, top=0, bottom=0), inner_content_scaling=<InnerScaling.SHRINK_TO_FIT: 4>)
ABOVE_TEXT = SimpleBoxLayoutRule(x_align=<AxisAlignment.ALIGN_MID: 2>, y_align=<AxisAlignment.ALIGN_MAX: 3>, margins=Margins(left=0, right=0, top=0, bottom=0), inner_content_scaling=<InnerScaling.SHRINK_TO_FIT: 4>)
