Right - you haven't marked it yet. The correct thing to do with a header, as described in ISO 32000-1:2008 is to mark it as an artifact.
Can you mark it? Sure. But there are no APIs for doing it. You are going to need to go VERY LOW LEVEL including editing the content stream, setting up all the various objects, etc. Leonard -----Original Message----- From: Walter Cybis [mailto:walter.cy...@polymtl.ca] Sent: Thursday, August 09, 2012 5:33 PM To: Post all your questions about iText here Subject: Re: [iText-questions] tag an untagged text in an existent PDF with iText? Hi Leonard, I created a header (Page i of n) with stamper.getOverContent and Acrobat show it as a "unmarked content", not as an "artifact". Can I mark this unmarked content with iText?
