so i tried to create an appearance stream for a highlight text

drawing shapes in content stream does nothing

Maybe you didn't set the color... or didn't stroke... or had the path outside of the bbox.



upon inspecting the pdf after saving it in acrobat, it has an extra
appearance stream dictionary containing an xform

but i looked at xform and there does not seem to be any way to draw or fill
shapes in that object

images drawn to xform yes but shapes? has anybody tried this?



Yes of course this can be done. Unless you mean the PDFBox API, that is indeed missing. You'll have to do it the hard way.
