You use code which only copies page content. That rectangle, though, is an
annotation, and annotations are not part of the page content but instead
extra data.

You'll find some background information in this stackoverflow answer:

In essence: If you want to copy all aspects of a page, you have to use
PdfCopy*. If you merely want to insert the contents of a page, you may use
PdfWriter.
