Hi,

> HOW are you adding them? PdfStamper? As annotations? What?

I use PDFStamper. One is a java.awt.Image object I instance with

    Image foo = new Image.getInstance(AwtImage,null,true);

The other one is a JPEG and is instanced with

    Image bar = new Image.getInstance("path/to/file.jpg");

These images are added with

    PdfStamper stamp = new PdfStamper(...);
    PdfContentByte over = stamp.getOverContent(1);
   
    foo.setAbsolutePosition(x,y);
    foo.logo.scaleAbsolute(width,height);
    over.addImage(foo);

    bar.setAbsolutePosition(x,y);
    bar.logo.scaleAbsolute(width,height);
    over.addImage(bar);

> What version of pdf2ps?  What options?

I tried ghostscript versions 7.07 and 7.05 and PostScript language
levels 1, 2 and 3.

I call pdf2ps like follows:

    pdf2ps file.pdf file.ps

which equals

    exec gs $OPTIONS -q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -dSAFER -sDEVICE=pswrite \
    "-sOutputFile=file.ps" $OPTIONS -c save pop -f "file.pdf"

Images seem to break during conversion. They are missing in printouts
(tryped HP and Lexmark printers) and if I convert ps file back to PDF
(ps2pdf) Images are missing in PDF viewer as well.

With the images I also add text to the PDF document. But text does not
disappear.

Thanks for your help!

Regards,
Sven
