This user has all of their watermarks in TIFF format, because they used a Xerox solution that could image them as background forms. They changed to a new model printer and they do not want to change all of the current processes. So I'm trying to help them using a Jython script to replicate what they were doing before by grabbing all of their TIFF's in a defined directory and making them a multi-page PDF with their watermarks.

Because it is tossing the opacity values when you do this - so it's no different than removing the setFillOpacity() call in your iText code. >Is there alternatives to using these TIFF's as watermarks that I haven't >thought of? Sure, use vector art in PDF format. >I started out using watermark method and it didn't seem to >work. These are full page TIFF's, which makes it more difficult. Why do you need a full page TIFF for a watermark?? What is it that you are stamping?
