             Summary: PDPageContentStream - give possibility to prepend content
                 Key: PDFBOX-3212
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3212
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: PDModel
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
         Environment: 2.0.0-RC3
            Reporter: Philip Helger
             Fix For: 2.0.0


Currently {{PDPageContentStream}} has the possibility to overwrite existing content or to append content to it.
What would be nice is to also prepend content (e.g. for watermarking).
Therefore I locally changed the constructor parameter {{boolean appendContent}} to an enum:
{code}
  public static enum EAppendMode
  {
    OVERWRITE,  APPEND,  PREPEND;
    public boolean isNotOverwrite () {
      return this != OVERWRITE;
    }
    public boolean isPrepend () {
      return this == PREPEND;
    }
  }
{code}
Of coure this means an incompatibility in the parameter list.
If you are interested to follow that path I can provide you with a patch (providing API compatibility).
If you think this idea is bullshit, just close it...
