xfrx does that, don't know if it can apply to an existing pdf

full documentation: http://www.eqeus.com/files/XFRXDevGuide.pdf
excerpt:

8.5.1 How to invoke the digital signing
(Note: the syntax is the same for VFP 9.0 and pre-VFP 9.0 calling methods)
To generate a signed PDF document, call the DigitalSignature method before calling SetParams. The DigitalSignature method has 7 parameter:
cSignatureFile
The .pfx file. pfx, the "Personal Information Exchange File". This file contains the public certificate and (password protected) private key. You get this file from a certificate authority or you can generate your own for testing, which for example, OpenSSL (http://www.slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html). XFRX comes with a sample pfx that you can use for testing.
cPassword
The password protecting the private key stored in the .pfx file
nAccessPermissions
per PDF specification:
1 - No changes to the document are permitted; any change to the document invalidates the signature.
2 - Permitted changes are filling in forms, instantiating page templates, and signing; other changes invalidate the signature. (this is the default value)
3 - Permitted changes are the same as for 2, as well as annotation creation, deletion and modification; other changes invalidate the signature.
cSignatureName
per PDF specification: The name of the person or authority signing the document. This value should be used only when it is not possible to extract the name from the signature; for example, from the certificate of the signer.
cSignatureContactInfo
per PDF specification: Information provided by the signer to enable a recipient to contact the signer to verify the signature; for example, a phone number.
cSignatureLocation
per PDF specification: The CPU host name or physical location of the signing.
cSignatureReason
per PDF specification: The reason for the signing, such as ( I agree ... ).


In my app i need to let the user to sign a pdf file i created from a report (made with crystal report).....My app runs on ipad (or android) device...
Has anyone an idea on how to have this option ?
