So I looked at the code and it does look like there is no way to do this
with the new implementation.
Using the -even, -odd or -page options could work for a small document, but
we wouldn't be able to overlay a 999 page PDF with a 3 page template.
What if we added something like a -useAllOverlayPages parameter (it's a bad
name, I know) that would then populate specificPageOverlayPage with all
the pages available from the defaultOverlay and then just do something like:
int usePageNum = pageNumber % specificPageOverlayPage.size(); if
(useAllOverlayPages && specificPageOverlayPage.containsKey(usePageNum)) {
layoutPage = specificPageOverlayPage.get(usePageNum); }
in the overlayPage() method.
I'd try it, but don't code in Java and it probably would take me a while
just to get the thing to compile... :)
Just for clarification. In your given example you expect to overlay your 999
pages pdf with a 3 pages overlay pdf by repeating those 3 pages over and over
again. Am I right?
Thoughts?
Obviously the old implementation provided that feature and the current one not.
So, if it's needed we should reimplement it. Shouldn't be that hard ....
Thanks

Hi,
I'm trying to overlay a 12 page PDF with a 2 page "template".
With the old Overlay implementation it would repeat the template 6 times:
page 1, page 2, page 1...
I tried several of the options documented, but couldn't get it to work
like it used to.
Does the new implementation support this?
I'm only using 1.8.2 because the code appears to be broken in the latest
1.8.6.
Thanks
