Hello, I am using PDFBox to add an image as an annotation into a PDF. When I open the PDF into Safari (macOS) the width of the image is reduced (the image does not look like it should be)
[image: LoremIpsum_Test_simple_2_pages-testA_pdf.png] This is the PDF : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lP6v90nEAQWuY84t1S0L8BWZkbiZ0mUw/view?usp=sharing This is the original image : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1X-dtqisuXLOkwBq1MvZueC69wdxhO8QH/view?usp=sharing I apply a reducing zoom on the image. Do you have any idea where my mistake is ? (annotation name : 73d51ba49022499ca1315b530f194276). If I open the PDF into chrome,... acrobat, everything is fine (which does not means my code is fine :D, may be these viewer are catching my mistake) I simplified my method but this is the code (because I manage other use cases...): private static void addAnnotationStamp(final PDDocument doc, AnnotationObject annotationObject) throws IOException { PDPage page; int nbPages = doc.getNumberOfPages(); int pageNumber = 0; if (annotationObject.getPage() != null) { pageNumber = annotationObject.getPage(); nbPages = 1; } while (nbPages > 0) { page = doc.getPage(pageNumber); float pw = page.getMediaBox().getUpperRightX(); float ph = page.getMediaBox().getUpperRightY(); logger.debug("Page(" + pageNumber + ") - size : " + pw + " x " + ph); List<PDAnnotation> annotations = page.getAnnotations(); PDAnnotationRubberStamp stamp = new PDAnnotationRubberStamp(); //Name is important and should be unique if (annotationObject.getPage() != null) stamp.setAnnotationName(annotationObject.getName()); else stamp.setAnnotationName(annotationObject.getName() + "-" + pageNumber); logger.debug("Annotation : " + stamp.getAnnotationName()); stamp.setPrinted(true); // always visible stamp.setReadOnly(true); // does not interact with user stamp.setLocked(true); stamp.setLockedContents(true); //Stackoverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/74836898/pdfbox2-acrobat-consider-my-annotation-added-between-two-signature-as-modified stamp.setPage(page); float objectWidth; float objectHeight; int heightTranslate = 1; PDImageXObject image = null; image = PDImageXObject.createFromFile(annotationObject.getImgSrc(), doc); objectWidth = image.getWidth() * annotationObject.getImgZoom() / 100; objectHeight = image.getHeight() * annotationObject.getImgZoom() / 100; heightTranslate = 5; logger.debug("Image size: " + objectWidth + " x " + objectHeight + " zoom is " + annotationObject.getImgZoom()); PDRectangle rect = new PDRectangle(annotationObject.getX(), ph - annotationObject.getY() - heightTranslate - objectHeight, objectWidth, objectHeight); stamp.setRectangle(rect); PDAppearanceStream appearanceStream = new PDAppearanceStream(doc); appearanceStream.setBBox(new PDRectangle(1, 1)); appearanceStream.setResources(new PDResources()); try (PDPageContentStream contentStream = new PDPageContentStream(doc, appearanceStream)) { contentStream.drawImage(image, new Matrix()); } PDAppearanceDictionary appearance = new PDAppearanceDictionary(); appearance.setNormalAppearance(appearanceStream); stamp.setAppearance(appearance); stamp.setIntent(PDAnnotationRubberStamp.IT_FREE_TEXT); annotations.add(stamp); page.setAnnotations(annotations); // these must be set for incremental save to work properly (PDFBOX < 3.0.0 at least?) //ap.getCOSObject().setNeedToBeUpdated(true); stamp.getCOSObject().setNeedToBeUpdated(true); page.getResources().getCOSObject().setNeedToBeUpdated(true); page.getCOSObject().setNeedToBeUpdated(true); doc.getDocumentCatalog().getPages().getCOSObject().setNeedToBeUpdated(true); doc.getDocumentCatalog().getCOSObject().setNeedToBeUpdated(true); nbPages--; pageNumber++; } } Best regards, Fred
