> Overlay process forcing bounding box to 0,0, clipping overlayed page.

> Key: PDFBOX-4120
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4120
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 2.0.8
> Reporter: Gregg
> Priority: Major
> Labels: Overlay
>
> Hello,
> I am using the overlay functionality in PDFBox to stamp existing pdf file
> pages with some test running up the left margin and across the footer of each
> page.
> I am creating an overlay page, based on the size, rotation, media and crop
> boxes with the text to stamp. I then call the overlay method with my overlay
> pages to create the final document.
> The overlay code creates a PDFormXObject representation of the overlay page
> to apply to the source page. Overlay.createOverlayXObject() sets the
> bounding box of the new PDFormXObject using the source page media box, but it
> forces the x,y to 0,0.
> The issue I have is when the original page has a media/crop box that starts
> in a negative quadrant, the overlay is clipped so some of the text is
> missing. The work around I am doing is to go through the results pages after
> the overlay method completes and update the bounding boxes of the
> PDFormXObject to be the media box as the source page.
> I think it would be helpful if we could tell the overlay process whether it
> should manipulate the bounding box or not.
