             Summary: Layer Utility - Text not being displayed when overlaying
                 Key: PDFBOX-4002
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4002
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Rendering
            Reporter: Vlad-Tudor Marchis
         Attachments: Overlayer.zip, base.pdf, out.pdf, overlay.pdf

I've had some problems with the layer utility when trying to overlay two PDFs. 
Normally it works fine, but I've encountered a type of PDF file on which it 
doesn't work properly. 
Text elements are not being displayed, but images are.
I've stripped down my code to the bare minimum and produced a maven project 
with a command line and provided some examples for the base, the overlay and 
the output I get.
I've attached all below.
The usage for the command line is as follows:
java -jar Overlayer-1.0.jar -basePdf base.pdf -overlayPdf overlay.pdf -outPdf 
out.pdf -layerName overlay

If I try to overlay the other way around, i.e. use the overlay.pdf in the 
-basePdf parameter and the base.pdf in the -overlayPdf parameter, it does do 
the overlaying, but obviously, that's not what I'm looking for.

Any hints as to why this might not work, or any particularities about the base 
PDF that might be causing this to be behaving differently would be helpful.
