Thanks, I decided to rewrite the second edition from scratch, based on my experience teaching iText. The organization of the first book wasn't ideal to explain how iText works in a classroom. > If I use stamper = new PdfStamper(reader, new fileOutputStream(dest)); > it works but obviously loses the reader rights > > If I add the ‘/0’, true at the end it fails, which is not a happy situation /0 is the null byte. Maybe Groovy doesn't like that. > Can you give any guidance as to what the ‘/0’ should contain. It's the version number of the new PDF file that will be created by PdfStamper. For instance, if you pass '7', the PDF header will be PDF-1.7. Passing '\0' is equivalent to saying: new PdfStamper(reader, new FileOutputStream(dest), reader.getPdfVersion(), true); So if Groovy doesn't like '\0', you can replace it with reader.getPdfVersion(). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ iText-questions mailing list iText-questions@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions Buy the iText book: http://www.itextpdf.com/book/ Check the site with examples before you ask questions: http://www.1t3xt.info/examples/ You can also search the keywords list: http://1t3xt.info/tutorials/keywords/
