Hi there,
at first sorry for the late reaction. Too much work at work.
In the original code there were to Blocks which differ a little bit, by the calculation of y. So the semantic is changed if both blocks are calling the same method now: renderSignatureGraphics().
There is this 15there. So probably something will break here.
Could you please take a look at that.
OpenPDF has a very bad test coverage, and caution must be taken.
New test for existing code (code you change) are very welcome.

Here is some kind of weird initialization.

Description of the new Feature
Support using PDF (vector graphics), in addition to images (i.e., png, jpg) as the visible signature.
I implemented this feature by adding a new function
setSignaturePDF. Then I copy a configurable page from the given PDF as the signature and render it to the proper place.Related Issue: #777
Unit-Tests for the new Feature/Bugfix
Compatibilities Issues
Only added new methods. No existing method signature or functionality changes. Should have no compatibility issues.
Your real name
No conflict of interest.
I am a jsignpdf user, who wants to embed vector signatures into pdf, just like the other user in #777.
Prefer to not provide real name unless maintainer insists.
Testing details
Updated the PdfSignatureAppearance test to use both an image signature (old feature, never tested) and a PDF signature (new feature).
I also changed the jsignpdf application to make use of this new feature. Will update a reference here once the jsignpdf PR is created.
