Tilman Hausherr updated PDFBOX-4068:
------------------------------------
Description:
We have a {{PDAppearanceContentStream}} for appearances but nothing for XObject
forms.
What we need should extend {{PDAbstractContentStream}} and should have a
constructor like
{code:java}
public PDFormContentStream(PDFormXObject form) throws IOException
{code}
Alternatively, why not replace {{PDAppearanceContentStream}} ? Its parameter
{{PDAppearanceStream}} is extended from {{PDFormXObject}} so we could just use
the base class.
We need this both for 2.0 and 3.* - we have users who have a really hard time
fiddling with low level operators instead of using the methods.
In 2.0 we could replace the parameter of {{PDPageContentStream}} that is
currently {{PDAppearanceStream}}. This would be a non breaking change.
