I If so, what needs to be done to achieve this? More detail: I have found the image in the PDF using resources.getXObjects(). I used PDXObjectImage.getRGBImage() to get access to the image so I could alter it using the Java 2d API Now I have a new instance of BufferedImage whic I want to write the PDF stream in place of the original image .
