I tried hard to solve the problem ,i found this code but they are a missing thing that i don't know how to get the directory of my certificate.

Java

public static final boolean signPdf()
			throws IOException, DocumentException, Exception
	{
		
		String fileKey          = "???" ;
			String fileKeyPassword  = "MyPassword" ;
 
		try {
			// Creationof KeyStore
			KeyStore ks = KeyStore.getInstance("pkcs12");
			
			ks.load(new FileInputStream(fileKey), fileKeyPassword.toCharArray());
			String alias = (String)ks.aliases().nextElement();
			
			PrivateKey key = (PrivateKey)ks.getKey(alias, fileKeyPassword.toCharArray());
			
			Certificate[] chain = ks.getCertificateChain(alias);
 
			
			PdfReader pdfReader = new PdfReader((new File(fname)).getAbsolutePath());
			File outputFile = new File(fnameS);
			
			PdfStamper pdfStamper;
			pdfStamper = PdfStamper.createSignature(pdfReader, null, '\0', outputFile);
			PdfSignatureAppearance sap = pdfStamper.getSignatureAppearance();
			sap.setCrypto(key, chain, null, PdfSignatureAppearance.SELF_SIGNED);
			sap.setReason("Test SignPDF berthou.mc");
			sap.setLocation("");
			// Position du tampon sur la page (ici en bas a gauche page 1)
			sap.setVisibleSignature(new Rectangle(10, 10, 50, 30), 1, "sign_rbl");
 
			pdfStamper.setFormFlattening(true);
			pdfStamper.close();
 
			return true;
		}
		catch (Exception key) {
			throw new Exception(key);
		}
	}
