Take a look at the PDF created by the code below: http://www.nabble.com/file/p19799531/example.pdf example.pdf
I've changed the appearance of the annotation and all works well until you double-click on the popup note. You'll notice that the appearance goes back to the default for that annotation type. It's almost like my change to the APPEARANCE_NORMAL gets lost. Am I forgetting something ? Code that created the PDF if below: public static void main(String[] args) { Document document = new Document(); try { PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.getInstance(document, new FileOutputStream("c:/temp/example.pdf")); document.open(); PdfAnnotation anno = PdfAnnotation.createText(writer, new Rectangle(100, 500, 172, 572), "Comment", "This annotation made with 'createText'", false, "Comment"); Image image = Image.getInstance("c:/temp/popup.bmp"); image.setAbsolutePosition(0,0); PdfAppearance app = writer.getDirectContent().createAppearance(image.getWidth(), image.getHeight()); app.addImage(image); anno.setAppearance(PdfAnnotation.APPEARANCE_NORMAL, app); anno.setAppearance(PdfAnnotation.APPEARANCE_DOWN, app); anno.setAppearance(PdfAnnotation.APPEARANCE_ROLLOVER, app); anno.setFlags(PdfAnnotation.FLAGS_PRINT); writer.addAnnotation(anno); } catch (Exception de) { de.printStackTrace(); } // step 5: we close the document document.close(); } -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Problem-changing-appearance-of-PdfAnnotation-tp19799531p19799531.html Sent from the iText - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 iText-questions@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions Buy the iText book: http://www.1t3xt.com/docs/book.php
