That works. Thanks.
Previously, when we used tiffs, we used the method
- document.add(tiffimage).
My question. When we have already a pdf,wrapped in a java object, added with a
watermark (with PdfStamper)
what is the method to add it to the document?
- document.add(xxx) there is not possibility to give a pdf as parameter to this
method.
Is there another method for that?
Cheers
