[jira] [Updated] (PDFBOX-4068) Create ContentStream for XObject
forms
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4068?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Tilman Hausherr updated PDFBOX-4068:
------------------------------------
Description:
We have a PDAppearanceContentStream for appearances but nothing for XObject forms.
What we need should extend PDAbstractContentStream and should have a constructor like
{code:java}
public PDFormContentStream(PDFormXObject form) throws IOException
{code}
Alternatively, why not replace PDAppearanceContentStream? Its parameter is extended from PDFormXObject so we could just use the base class.
We need this both for 2.0 and 3.* - we have users who have a really hard time fiddling with low level operators instead of using the methods.
In 2.0 we could replace the parameter of PDPageContentStream that is currently PDAppearanceStream. This would be a non breaking change.
