Hello iText team,
I am applying a "watermark" (text) to an existing PDF document using the
iText API. I have a problem document. This PDF document was created by
"PDFScanLib v1.2.2 in Adobe Acrobat 7.0.8." The watermark text is applied
to the document, but WAY off of the page.
Here is what Adobe Designer (xml view) has for the first character is the
watermark:
<subform name="P1" w="8.500in" h="14.000in">
<break before="pageArea" beforeTarget="#Page1"/>
<draw name="T01" x="3.842in" y="320.898in" minW="0.312in"
minH="0.312in">
<value>
<text>T</text>
</value>
<ui>
<textEdit>
</textEdit>
</ui>
<para vAlign="middle"/>
<font size="12.7pt" typeface="Helvetica">
<fill>
<color value="255,0,0"/>
</fill>
</font>
</draw>
The y value is at 320.898 inches! This is WAY OFF.
I am using the PDFStamper method of (based on the online example) to
watermark the document.
Using the iText API I've determined that the pages are LEGAL size.
Further, I found this to be interesting (from PDFReader.getPageSize(i)):
llx = 0.0
lly = 22584.0
urx = 612.0
ury = 23592.0
ury - lly = 1008!!!
When I use Adobe Professional's View->Add Watermark & Background (source
from text option) I can watermark this document.
How can I adjust the lly and ury of the document? Or how can I move the
text onto the page?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
