Paulo,
Thank you for the suggestion. PdfStamper does work well when only
changes to the metadata are needed. The code looks like this:
String str = "file1.pdf";
String fileName = "file2.pdf";
com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfReader pdfReader = new
com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfReader(str);
byte meta[] = pdfRea
To just change the metadata use PdfStamper, no PdfCopy is needed.

One more comment: I don't add additional content to the PDF file. I do
change the metadata, though. Is your comment below still valid in this
case?

You can't add content to PdfCopy. Assemble your pdf with PdfCopy and then
modify the resulting pdf with PdfStamper.

It depends when you are changing the page size, how you are
getting the text position, etc. As usually, showing code is the fastest way to
get an answer.

How about *nix

or windows

I guess you will have to be a little more explicit about what you mean
by "copy a PDF file". Why do you want to copy the file? Do you want
the whole thing? Why not use std java methods? Do you want the pages
only? Only some pages?

Hi!

with leading. I see in API not like this.
Or can I compute it someway?
Or can I use instead java.awt.font.TextLayout methods, because
