OK. That's easy. See http://itextdocs.lowagie.com/tutorial/general/copystamp/index.php#pdfsta mper > // here is where I attempt to write the header, but to no avail > _stamper.Writer.Header = > new HeaderFooter( new Phrase( "Consumer number " + > this.ConsumerNumber ), false ); Why are you using the HeaderFooter class? It has been banned from all the official documentation. It is not intended for use in combination with PdfStamper; it is no longer advised to use with PdfWriter. > Do I have to use the Document? No, you are doing it all wrong. > How do I get the document for the same current out-stream that stamper > is using? > I guess one idea (that I haven't tried yet) is to close the > stamper/stream and reopen the document and to do the header, I hope > (if it works) that there is a better option! All the above is irrelevant. Please adapt the tutorial example instead of using HeaderFooter. br, Bruno ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
