使用来自当前用户商店的 x509 证书签署 pdf

Question

first of all please note that I'm quite new to this platform and therefore not used to the rules or "best practices", so please let me know if there's anything i should edit.

But now, here's my problem:

I want to sign a pdf document with a certificate from the current user store. For this task, I'm not allowed to use libraries that require a license, so basically everything i use has to be open source. The private key of the certificate that i have to use for signing is set to unexportable. I already managed to complete the task by using the "Syncfusion PDF" library, but unfortunately, it's not open source.

Since I'm quite new to programming and especially c# i now struggle to find a solution without using Syncfusion. Hope somebody can help:)

Here's the code WITH Syncfusion. it works perfectly fine:

Stream stream = new FileStream(src, FileMode.OpenOrCreate);
PdfLoadedDocument loadedDocument = new PdfLoadedDocument(stream);
PdfLoadedPage page = loadedDocument.Pages[0] as PdfLoadedPage;
PdfLoadedSignatureField field = loadedDocument.Form.Fields[0] as PdfLoadedSignatureField;
X509Store store = new X509Store("MY", StoreLocation.CurrentUser);
store.Open(OpenFlags.ReadOnly | OpenFlags.OpenExistingOnly);
X509Certificate2Collection collection = (X509Certificate2Collection)store.Certificates;
X509Certificate2 digitalID = collection[0];
PdfCertificate certificate = new PdfCertificate(digitalID);
PdfSignature pdf1 = new PdfSignature(loadedDocument, page, certificate, "Signature", field);
field.Signature = pdf1;
loadedDocument.Save(stream);
loadedDocument.Close(true);
