That is more or less what I need. Oc� printers allow to print pdf files directly. To be able to adjust processing instructions (simplex,duplex,paper tray,etc.) they allow to insert these processing instructions within the pdf files inside such a document update block.
If I understand it right I could use itext to produce a pdf document in memory and pdfstamper to produce a document update block for this in-memory pdf document. Of course all this has nothing to do with the PDF standard written by Adobe even if these files should still be conforming...
Thanks in advance, Carsten

Hi, is it possible to use itext to generate a pdf document + pdf document update block like this:
[beginning of the pdf document deleted] ... trailer << /Size 9 /Root 1 0 R /Info 8 0 R >> startxref 64692 %%EOF <--- here is the end of the generated pdf document 9 0 obj << /INFOBLOCK INTERN /Length 490 >> stream <some text information> <more text information> endstream endobj xref 0 1 0000000000 65535 f 9 1 0000064949 00000 f trailer << /Size 10 /Root 1 0 R /Info 8 0 R /Prev 64692 >> startxref 0000065505 %%EOF <--- here is the end of the generated pdf document update block
How can I do this? Can itext help me doing this? I need the update block because I want to transport some additional information inside of the pdf. That this pdf file structure does not survive further manipulations
does not matter.
Best regards, Carsten Hammer
PS: it is important to get exactly this pdf structure.
