I thought I'd make a Template for the appearance as originally advised by Paulo and see if I could keep the annotation instead of writing directly on the page. I almost succeeded but have found that the appearance is displaying misaligned and clips beyond the rectangle/template borders. Am I doing something wrong? Is this something that can be easily fixed? (If not, I'll quit while I'm ahead :) ) Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(103.07f, 27.47f, 223.08f, 89.08f); PdfAnnotation annotation = PdfAnnotation.createInk(pdf_stamper.getWriter(), rect, "", gestures); PdfContentByte cb = pdf_stamper.getOverContent(5); // is this ok? PdfTemplate apTemplate = cb.createTemplate(rect.getWidth(), rect.getHeight()); // should I be setting the template dimensions to those of the annotation rectangle I'm recreating below? // ...apTemplate.moveTo(), apTemplate.lineTo(), apTemplate.stroke() // create annotation appearance annotation.setAppearance(annotation.APPEARANCE_NORMAL, apTemplate); pdf_stamper.addAnnotation(annotation,5); I read somewhere this might be something to do with the cropBox and media box being different? I checked this but they are both the same: System.out.println(reader.getCropBox(5)); // Rectangle: 612.0x792.0 (rot: 0 degrees) System.out.println(reader.getPageSize(5)); // Rectangle: 612.0x792.0 (rot: 0 degrees) Any ideas? -- View this message in context: http://itext-general.2136553.n4.nabble.com/createInk-not-displaying-in-PDF-on-Ubuntu-Linux-tp4292565p4303884.html Sent from the iText - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Keep Your Developer Skills Current with LearnDevNow!
