Interesting!
That version throws an error:
class java.lang.String cannot be cast to class java.lang.Integer
(java.lang.String and java.lang.Integer are in module java.base of loader
'bootstrap')
at Overlay.java, line 132.
I wonder if there's something fundamentally problematic about data types in the Lucee
part and the non-verbose version just ignores it and throws its hands up and says
"no"?
This is weird, the problematic line is one that hasn't been changed, and
it should have thrown an exception before too.
Anyway, I'm glad I could help!

Got it. Thanks Tilman!
Will let you know if I manage to figure out how to see the debug! 🙂

Hi,
Use this version:
https://repository.apache.org/content/groups/snapshots/org/apache/pdfbox/pdfbox-app/3.0.6-SNAPSHOT/pdfbox-app-3.0.6-20250711.072333-59.jar
please tell when you've downloaded it so that revert these changes.

Hi Tilman,
That is the call I'm making, yes.
Oooh. Interesting! I've just tried with the command line version documented
here:
https://pdfbox.apache.org/3.0/commandline.html
and THAT works nicely. I can create a new PDF with specific pages overlaid.
So it IS capable of doing what I want, but only from the command line. But it's
the same JAR. Confusing!
Which kinda leads me to think I'm doing something specifically wrong in the
Lucee/CFML version.
Hmm. I'm unsure how to make a verbose snapshot.
I think I'll try using Maven (https://docs.lucee.org/recipes/maven.html) rather
than the direct JAR and see if that produces a different result.
Thanks for your help thus far. Will come back with some results if I can make
it do what I want!

Here's what I could do:
I'd create a verbose snapshot version that will tell whether it was
called at all and what pages were handled.
I assume you're using this call:
public PDDocument overlay(Map<Integer, String> specificPageOverlayMap)
The output would look like this (that's from the unit test)
specificPageOverlayMap:
{1=pdfbox\src\test\resources\org\apache\pdfbox\multipdf\rot0.pdf,
2=pdfbox\src\test\resources\org\apache\pdfbox\multipdf\rot90.pdf,
3=pdfbox\src\test\resources\org\apache\pdfbox\multipdf\rot180.pdf,
4=pdfbox\src\test\resources\org\apache\pdfbox\multipdf\rot270.pdf}
specificPageOverlayLayoutPageMap:
{1=org.apache.pdfbox.multipdf.Overlay$LayoutPage@7f5c94e6,
2=org.apache.pdfbox.multipdf.Overlay$LayoutPage@761fc90d,
3=org.apache.pdfbox.multipdf.Overlay$LayoutPage@493f56b,
4=org.apache.pdfbox.multipdf.Overlay$LayoutPage@3620308c}

Sorry, yes that would help.
I'm on 3.0.5 and I'm using the app JAR file.
I can't really - my Java knowledge is appalling. I could maybe cobble it
together but not sure it'd be very accurate!

Hi,
Please tell what PDFBox version you're using. Are you able to simulate
the calls without using Lucee and what happens then? Are you using a jar
file or are you using maven?
