[iText-questions] PdfDestinations to flushed pages.

[Finn Bock]

Hi,

I'm seeking a hint on how I can create a PdfDestination to pages that I already have completed. Unfortunately, I only know which parameters to use for the PdfDestination after all the pages have been created.

The only solution that I was able to find required an additional method on the PdfDestination class because the PdfIndirectReference class and the PdfWriter.getPageReference() method are package private.

public boolean addPage(PdfWriter writer, int page) {
return addPage(writer.getPageReference(page));
}

But perhaps I have overlooked a different or better way to save some kind of reference to the pages when I create the pages.

regards,
finn
