Rendering only the annotations, possible?
Hi,
we are using PDFBox to add/modify annotations of a PDF file with showing
a preview to the user. This works well: let PDFBox rendering the PDF
(with annotations included), showing the image to the user.
But when using complex and big PDF files, it may take some seconds to
render the complete page. That's not bad, when only doing this once. But
we want to update the preview after every annotation change.
So the idea is: let PDFBox render the PDF without the annotations once.
Caching the resulting image (base). Now it would be great, to let PDFBox
render only the annotations after every change. So the preview would be
much faster: painting the cached (base) image and painting the
annotation-image. Is this possible?
Thanks a lot,
jens

Alternatively try creating a new PDPage object with the same MediaBox +
CropBox than the old one.

Yes that one was my initial idea, but to not call "processPage" in it.
Which didn't work for you (I never tried, I just looked at the source code).
Maybe your bug is because "initPage()" isn't called. So a solution would
be to replace processPage() with a call to initPage()... which isn't
possible because that is private...
How about calling processPage() with a page that has no content stream,
i.e. temporarly moving /Contents away and put it back.

Looking deeper into the sourcecode at your suggested methods, I am
thinking about overriding drawPage:
public void drawPage(Graphics arg0, PDRectangle
arg1) throws IOException
{
final COSBase contents =
parameters.getPage().getCOSObject().getDictionaryObject(COSName.CONTENTS);
parameters.getPage().getCOSObject().removeItem(COSName.CONTENTS);
try
{
super.drawPage(arg0, arg1);
}
finally
{
parameters.getPage().getCOSObject().setItem(COSName.CONTENTS, contents);
}
}
What do you think? Thanks again,
jens

Hello Jens,
This can be done by modifying PageDrawer.java or make your own. Override
PageDrawer.processPage() to do nothing (see the source code of
PageDrawer.drawPage() to see why). Read the class javadoc of PageDrawer
because of the difficulties to subclass it.
