John Hewson commented on PDFBOX-3305:
-------------------------------------
You really need a matrix though, because images are drawn w.r.t the unit
square, which is 1x1 square positioned at (0,0), which you're always going to
want to scale.
> PDPageContentStream should allow drawing images at current position

> Key: PDFBOX-3305
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3305
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: PDModel
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0
> Reporter: Michele Balistreri
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: pdpagecontentstream-drawimage.diff
>
>
> The PDPageContentStream class has two drawImage methods (one calling the
> other) but both add a transformation to the graphics state. This patch adds a
> drawImage method with a single parameter (the image), which only adds the
> image without applying any transformation.
> This is needed because otherwise there is no other way of setting a transform
> matrix manually which might have skew/rotation in addition to
> scaling/translation.
> An alternative to this patch could also be a drawImage method which takes a
> Matrix and applies it. But still if for whatever reasons multiple images
> should be drawn with the same transformation matrix this would be inflexible.
