I think I have come closer to the final aim with the foll code, but I
strongly feel that some tiny bit is missing...can anyone pls help - i think
im not getting the right PdfName in the setAppearance method...the
documentation is bit confusing - i have done some amount of trial and error,
but no luck so far....
BaseFont bf = BaseFont.createFont (BaseFont.COURIER,
BaseFont.CP1252, BaseFont.NOT_EMBEDDED);
PdfAppearance ap =
writer.getDirectContent().createAppearance(rect.getWidth(),
rect.getHeight());
ap.beginText();
ap.setFontAndSize(bf, 10);
ap.showText(contents.getContent());
ap.endText();
pa.setAppearance(PdfName.AS, ap);
writer.addAnnotation(pa);
thx in advance
