Java method invoke error

Encountering an issue when invoking a Java method. I have implemented Java code successfully for adding a signature image to a PDF. It functioned well when executed via the command prompt, but when attempting to integrate it into UiPath using Java activities,I encounter an error: “Invoke Java Method: One or more errors occurred. (The method could not be invoked.)” Provided below are sample input files and also following this blog Learn Rpa Uipath.
