I don't know if I understand the question. Why don't you use a member variable in your subclass of PdfPageEventHelper. Create an instance of your custom page event class and make sure you have a setter that allows you to change the value of the variable. Check this value in the onEndPage method to make whatever decision is needed (add a watermark, don't add a watermark, add something else,...). br, Bruno ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
