Class PdfGState is a dictionary, you can add any keys to it including the
SMask key. To select a graphic state call PdfContentByte.setGState().

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.
Greetings,
Michael

Hello
I could not find support for Soft-Mask Dictionaries in iText (because
they aren't implemented yet) Thus I got two questions:
1. Do you intent to implement Soft-Mask Dictionaries?
2. Would you accept a patch for support of Soft-Mask Dictionaries (To
be too enthusiastic. I will only have time to implement this if am
sponsored by my employee.)
Best Regards,
Michael
