New Features

It’s now possible to define a signature standard on document level for each document in a document basket. E.g. one document in the basket can be signed with a Qualified Electronic Signature (QES) the rest of the documents with a Simple Electronic Signature (EES).
"Download all" button can be hidden on the page to preview documents and on the page to view the signed documents.
An additional feature including a new API is provided to update the document-basket once all documents for a signer have been uploaded. If this feature is enabled for a profile, the signer will see a waiting page until the API has been called for the specific signer.
An optional additional step can be displayed before the identification, in which the end user can add / edit their phone number without an additional OTP validation.
A new API is provided to lookup if the phone number of an end user is already registered at Swisscom for the Qualified Electronic Signature (QES) without an additional identification.

Multiple images of the id front page are included in the signed id copy created during the identification process.
The identification and and signing PDF report are now delivered in English, instead of German.
Additional to the cropped front and back (if available) image of the identification document, the original uncropped files can be returned additionally in the ZIP file with file name "original_front_{caseid}.jpg" and "original_back_{caseid}.jpg".
Documents signed with PDF/A 2A, 2B, 2U and PDF/A 3A, 3B, 3C standard will keep PDF/A format if a visual signature stamp is applied.
Font used in visual signature placement is updated from Helvetica Bold to Liberation sans. Liberation sans supports an extended set of characters, to avoid technical errors when mapping the submitted or extracted name into the visual signature placement .
Hide progressbar in iFrame to enter the OTP for the acceptance of the Swisscom terms of use and for the signing by OTP.
Change background color of Swisscom iFrame from blue to white.
