Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-4816:
-----------------------------------------
You would need to understand the PDF operators and the parameters. It might be
difficult or impossible, e.g. if the text uses a font subset. The problem is
that unlike page content streams, PDFormXObject cannot have several content
streams.
Can you attach the PDF?
Alternatively, why not just write on the page directly, i.e. append a new page
content stream?
