[jira] [Closed] (PDFBOX-72) Support Adding a Print Only Water Mark

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-72?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

John Hewson closed PDFBOX-72.
-----------------------------
    Resolution: Invalid

I can't really make sense of this issue, and it's not clear that this still affects more current versions of PDFBox.

> Ben Litchfield
> From User:
> Is anything actually required to implement this. Page 573/574 
> of the pdf 1.6 spec contains the bit values for F associated 
> with annotations (of which watermark is one) 
>  
> Bit 3 and 6 are the ones of interest. 
>  
> Bit 3 controls if the annotation is printed or not 
> Bit 6 controls if the annotation is displayed or not 
>  
> Setting both bits should have the effect of the annotation only 
> appearing on the print. (The document for bit 6 NoView 
> actually says "The annotation may be printed (depending on 
> the setting of the print flag), but should be considered hidden 
> for the purposes of on-screen display...") 
>  
> The PDFBox PDAnnotation class has the flags 
> FLAG_PRINTED and FLAG_NO_VIEW which should 
> correspond to these.

> From User:
> In the 1.5 PDF Reference, I only see a reference to the 
> term 'watermark' once
> in table 4.49 (section 4.10), so I'm not sure if theres an 
> alternate term used
> in their documentation.
> In Acrobat 7.0 Pro there is an 'Add Watermark & Background' 
> dialog on the Document
> menu. That is the particular behavior I'm aiming to automate.
