MH edited comment on PDFBOX-1176 at 3/20/13 3:31 PM: ----------------------------------------------------- This leads to a NullPointerException at graphicsStateDictionary.put("TransparentState", extendedGraphicsState); because resources.getGraphicsStates(); returns null! I worked around this via Map graphicsStateDictionary = resources.getGraphicsStates(); //returns null !!! if (graphicsStateDictionary != null) { graphicsStateDictionary.put("TransparentState", extendedGraphicsState); resources.setGraphicsStates(graphicsStateDictionary); } else { Map<String, PDExtendedGraphicsState> m = new HashMap<>(); m.put("TransparentState", extendedGraphicsState); resources.setGraphicsStates(m); } and this seems to work: the text is drawn "behind" - but still in color black - cs.setStrokingColor(Color.RED) does nothing! was (Author: mhilpert): This leads to a NullPointerException at graphicsStateDictionary.put("TransparentState", extendedGraphicsState); because resources.getGraphicsStates(); returns null! > Watermark > --------- > > Key: PDFBOX-1176 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1176 > Project: PDFBox > Issue Type: Wish > Reporter: Rubesh MX > Labels: Watermark > Original Estimate: 24h > Remaining Estimate: 24h > > I am checking if watermarks can be added to a PDF doc and the same way can > be removed, so far I could not find any option to do that with PDFBox; It > will be better if we have an option to add and remove watermak to a PDF. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
