Hello Paulo, thanks for your reply. I did some reading in the PDF standard. I'm pretty sure that a Soft-Mask Dictionary can only be selected into the graphics state with the "gs" operator. I looked into the graphics state class in iText (I forgot the name of the class). This class does not support all the bells and whistles of PDF 1.4.
Once a Soft-Mask Dictionary is selected into the graphics state all drawing operations undergo soft-clipping which would be really great.
