Hi Rob ,
Please check this example :

- Ex: How to insert colorized text in the pdf :
String file = "C:\\mypdf.pdf"; PDDocument pdfFile = PDDocument.load( file ); PDPage newPage = new PDPage(); PDPageContentStream newPageData = new PDPageContentStream( pdfFile, newPage ); // This is our stream.

        newPageData.beginText();

        // Set the font settings :
                PDSimpleFont font = PDType1Font.TIMES_ITALIC;
int fontSize = 18; newPageData.setFont( font, fontSize ); newPageData.setNonStrokingColor( 49, 7, 241 ); // That's our target .. This changes the text color.

        newPageData.drawString( "This is blue text." );

How to add red text?

I have been struggling with formatting a new PDF.

It is simple text with some hyperlinks and is working fine.

However, I need some of the text to be Red and I have not been able to figure out how to change the text color.

Can someone give me an example?

Thanks in advance!
