You can't do that - it doesn't make any sense in the PDF context. On 2/27/13 12:35 PM, adamec adam.pomo...@gmail.com wrote: Hi guys. I cannot find a way, how to use already created detached PKCS#1 signature with iText. This topic is quite similar, but gives me no answers (and uses old version

Re: [iText-questions] Adding a destination anchor to an existing PDFpage

You seem to be confusing the capabilities of PDF (the file format) with the capabilities of products (such as the merging feature iText). PDF very happily supports the concept of an anchor (called a named destination in PDF terms). Additionally, links (either as Actions or as Destinations)

Re: [iText-questions] Tagging content

Jason, using the Alt for an image is NOT the right way to accomplish what you want. You should just put a custom key of your own choosing on each Xobject that you wish to mark. This would be a second class key (as described in ISO 32000-1:2008) and you'll need to register your second class

You can't. The PDDoc is a private data structure to Acrobat while the iTextSharp Document is private to iText. What you need to do is simply reopen the PDF document in iText. Leonard From: Vidhya K P vidhy...@gmail.commailto:vidhy...@gmail.com Reply-To: Post here
