> Create a pdf document,

> Adding a page event to the document. onStartPage, it is to
> add text watermark on every new page.
>
> Open the document
>
>   Copy another document (TIFF,PDF,GIF) into this using
> PdfContentByte and PdfImportedPage
>
> Close the document
>
> The event onStartPage has:
>
> PdfContentByte cb = writer.getDirectContentUnder()
>
> CreateFont(HELVETICA,CP1252, NOT_EMBEDDE)
>
> Cb.beginText()
>
> Cb.setCollorFill(100,100,100);
>
> Cb.showTextAligned(...)
>
> Cb.endText()

> If I add text watermark without using the event approach then

> can not control/tell when the table spans to the next page
> for me to add the watermark on each page.
