Apologies if this sends more than once - my mails keep bouncing back. Here is the scenario...
I have a pdf document (A) that contains an
embedded movie file. I want to create a new pdf
(B), add some pages of my own and then import pdf
A and stamp a page number over it.
When I try to do this the output file B is tiny
(28kb) considering the size of A (7mb). Instead
of the whole video clip getting imported, there
is just an image placeholder there.
Here is some extracted code to show you what I am
doing... I cant attach the input file as the
mailing list rejects it because of its size
PdfReader reader=new PdfReader("A_input.pdf");
Document document= new Document
(com.lowagie.text.PageSize.LETTER, 42f, 42f, 36f,
36f);
PdfWriter writer =
PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new
FileOutputStream(mainBook));
document.open();
PdfImportedPage page;
PdfImportedPage blankPage;
PdfContentByte cb = writer.getDirectContent();
page = writer.getImportedPage(reader, 1);
cb.addTemplate(page, 1f, 0, 0, 1f, 0, 0);
//code to stamp a page number over the current
page
cb.beginText();
cb.setFontAndSize(bf, TextFontSize);
cb.setRGBColorFillF(255f, 255f, 255f);
cb.showTextAligned(PdfContentByte.ALIGN_CENTER,
String.valueOf(pageNumber), width-TextXIndent,
height-TextYIndent, rotation);
cb.endText();
document.close();
