I am using Jasper Reports for all my reporting needs in my Oracle Apex applications. Lately, my users are requesting that they want to do digital signatures and also to have a fully secured QR code on the report for document verification. I tried researching ways to do it and I have found some useful applications but they will not suit my needs and some are too complex.
My requirements are to have the users click a button or view a PDF within Oracle Apex (note that the PDF is pulled via API and downloaded as a blob in a table) and sign the PDF via signature pad or use of a digital signature or even try to integrate it with an external service that does it. That is for the signing part.
For the QR aspect, I want the QR to be generated via query running the report in the Jasper Reports so I want the QR to be generated before it is called and downloaded into the table as a blob. I don't see any documentation for Jasper Reports doing this. I want a URL to be embedded into he QR code so when a user scans it, they can be redirected to a website that tells you if the document is authenticated.
EDIT - I found a useful application for the generation of QR codes in Jasper Reports but your help is still welcomed.
I do not want someone to tell me exactly how to do this but if you want to then it will be very helpful. But I would prefer you point me in the direction of documentation so I can develop and learn.
Side Notes:
I have Oracle Apex 23.2 and I am running on the autonomous cloud.
Thank you!!
