1T3XT info, With the information you provided and the "document.newPage()" code, I was able to add tags to the PDF which consisted of pages imported from another pdf.
I appreciated the tip for info from Chapter 10 (10.4.1: CTM; 10.4.2: PdfTemplates). I had read over these chapters (the index provided me with pages to consult, when the chapter headings indicated dealing with images, etc.), but I did miss the relevance of the CTM for importing pages. I especially appreciate the HelloWorldWriter and MarkedContent examples which really gave me a good start.

If you've read the book, you've skipped the algebra part in chapter 10. With the 0.5 you indicate that you want to scale the X and Y dimensions of the page to 50%. With the negative values, you indicate that you want to rotate them. You also define an offset. You probably want 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0 as values for the CTM. > 2. Is it possible to tag an imported page or pages? Er... First I thought you wanted to tag the content inside the pages; that would be difficult. Now I see you want to tag complete pages; I assume that's possible. -- This answer is provided by 1T3XT BVBA ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ iText-questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions Buy the iText book: http://www.1t3xt.com/docs/book.php ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ iText-questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions Buy the iText book: http://www.1t3xt.com/docs/book.php
