Pdf watermark, positioning help

I've recently been playing around with the idea of automatically updating pdf's that are submitted to our website with our web address. Idealy the text would be a clickable link that is centered and positioned at the very top of the page (although im not quite sure if the clickable link part is even possible with cfpdf or itext).  I've been able to add watermarks using both cfpdf and itext, but the watermarks always seem to be pushed down almost an inch from the top of the page and i need the watermark to be at the very top of the page so that it doesn't interfere with the other text (even though the watermark has an opacity of 85%).  I'm looking for suggestions on how i can:
A. position the text/watermark at the very top of the page.
B. make the text a clickable link.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

It sounds like your positioning is off.  Can you post the code you are using to position the watermark?
Regarding hyperlinks, you can use an Anchor object to add a hyperlink to an existing pdf.

  • PDF Watermark - logo image is not displayed in ibr converted pdf

    Hi
    I have enabled pdf watermark administration and configured image watermark with rule, if the content type is document then the image watermark is to be applied but it is not displayed to the converted word document to pdf by IBR.
    If i change image watermark layer to "over", then image watermark is displayed, but word are displayed under the logo image watermark, so it is difficult to study the document.
    If the native file is pdf, then its image watermark is working fine.
    Thanks

    Hi ,
    I think this could be caused by the following :
    Check the factor set for Transparency and if it is completely opaque (Transparency =0%) then the converted PDF's will not show watermarks which has Layer set to UNDER.
    To get the watermarks displayed PPT's will need to be set to Transparency = 100% .
    The intention of the UNDER watermarking layer is that it should appear"behind" whatever is in the content layer.If the content layer completely covers the page and is opaque, then nothing behind it will be visible,including watermarks.The only reasonable solution is to check the above mentioned value before submitting the PPT's for conversion so that users are aware of this behavior for PPT's
    The above description if for PPT's where in this was found to be caused by the transparency factor of native PPT . If it is a word document then check for the same setting and set to 100% , then test .
    Hope this helps .
    Thanks,

  • PDF watermark service

    Dear All,
    I have the following scenario:
    1. I need to checkin a document to UCM
    2. Post the checkin, i need to generate an image dynamically using my custom java code & checkin that image also to UCM as a new revision of content id say img_001.
    3. Once the image has been checked in, i need to call the PDF watermark service to apply the static watermark to the main document using img_001.
    The approach i m planning for this is, after main doc checkin to UCM, call the custom java program to generate the img & checkin the img as a new revision of img_001 to UCM from the same program. Within the same custom java code, call the pdf watermark service to apply the static watermark to the main document with the recently checked in version of img_001.
    In order to implement this, i need to know how to call the pdf watermark service from custom java code e.g. name of the service, parameters to be passed etc.
    Can anyone please help me with this issue? Also, if you have any alternative approaches to accomplish this scenario, please share your thoughts.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi!
    I had a similar problem. Instead of using PDF Watermark, I let the java program do all the logic. iText is already available in the standard installation, and it wasn't too hard to implement.

    Created PDF form in Acrobat XI Pro, but HELP fields disappear when I save FCDT file to PDF. Please help. Thanks!

    I am not aware of a field type "Help" within a PDF form. I do not see it as a form field that can be added in the form edit mode.
    Forms Central forms do not support all the features of Acrobat forms.
    Are you talking about the "Tool Tips" or a hidden field that only shows when one enters a field and is hidden upon exiting the field.

    If I paste the jpeg on a draw page and shrink it to fit, fuzzy print. If I create the text directly on a draw page, it's fine. (That suggests to me the problem isn't in the printer.) But I want to include a small drawing on the card, and the pasted jpeg of that small drawing is very poor quality.

  • Adding PDF watermark in Automator doesn't work in Lion?

    Hi folks,
    I am trying to create a function for adding watermarks to my invoices. I read different tutorials, but whatever I make, when it comes to adding the watermark background (Automator -> Workflow -> PDFs -> Watermark PDF document (not quite sure about the english name)) it doesn't add anything. I tried .jpg, .psd, .png, different image files and sizes. However I never get any file into my list.
    Any hints?
    Thanks!
    Mike

    Here's a workaround:
    1. Create a workflow, including the "Watermark PDF Documents" action, save it as a workflow.
    2. Show the contents of the saved workflow, find the file "document.wflow" inside the "Contents" folder, open it with a word processor, e.g TextEdit or BBEdit or Microsoft Word
    3. Find the parameter block of the "Watermark PDF Documents" action, it should look like below:
                                  <key>ActionParameters</key>
                                  <dict>
                                            <key>angle</key>
                                            <real>57.379999999999995</real>
                                            <key>onePDF</key>
                                            <false/>
                                            <key>opacity</key>
                                            <real>0.72282608695652173</real>
                                            <key>overUnder</key>
                                            <integer>1</integer>
                                            <key>scale</key>
                                            <real>1.4574821967095799</real>
                                            <key>xOffset</key>
                                            <real>34.5</real>
                                            <key>yOffset</key>
                                            <real>23.469999999999999</real>
                                    </dict>
    4. Add a key-value pair for "fileNames" into the parameter dictionary, so that it looks like this:
                                    <key>ActionParameters</key>
                                    <dict>
                                            <key>angle</key>
                                            <real>57.379999999999995</real>
                                            <key>fileNames</key>
                                            <array>
                                                    <string>/Volumes/Storage/Media/Pictures/SleepingCat.gif</string>
                                            </array>
                                            <key>onePDF</key>
                                            <false/>
                                            <key>opacity</key>
                                            <real>0.72282608695652173</real>

  • IPM Electronic Signature/PDF Watermarking.

    All,
    I'm attempting to satisfy a requirement for Electronic Signature or PDF Watermarking for IPM.
    I know these utilities are intended for use in UCM, however, I guess my real question is what options
    are available to those folks who use IPM?
    BTW, I did install and configure the UCM PDF Watermarking component, but cannot get any results to show up in either the
    advanced or basic IPM Viewer.
    Am I stuck using something like ITEXT on the LINUX side prior to ingestion of the PDF's into IPM?
    I'm up for that - if it's really the only possibility. However, I was hoping to satisfy the requirement without a
    customization like this.
    Thanks in advance for feedback . . .
    regards,
    -Phillip

    Hi ,
    Is the watermarking configured and working for contents that are checked in from UCM ?
    Thanks

  • FAQ: Where can I find a PDF of the Help documentation?

    Searching the Help documentation for Premiere Pro is much easier in PDF format. It's also useful to have a PDF of the Help in case you don't have access to the internet. Here is the link:
    http://blogs.adobe.com/premierepro/2010/08/help-documents-for-creative-suite-5-pdf-and-htm l.html

    I don't think it's available yet.  The English help page has a link to it:
    https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/topics.html
    But the equivalent page for Netherlands only links to prior versions:
    Help bij Lightroom | Help bij Lightroom
    Same for DE, FR, ES.  Maybe someone more enlightened knows if they're available somewhere else on Adobe's site.

    Well, we just want the PDF to open when we click on the “Help” link of the Application.
    Also, we have the PDF ready. 
    Is it a job of a UI Developer? Do we need to tell him to link this PDF to the Help button or link of the Application?

  • PDF WATERMARK NOT VISIBLE IN READER

    HI Gurus,
    I have created a simple script which reads a value from a form field and creates a watermark on pdf document.
    I can view the watermark in Acrobat Pro 9 but unable to see the watermark when viewing through acroabt reader 9. Below is the script I am using. I have not set bOnScreen or bOnPrint and have left as default which I believe is true.
    var cMyText = this.getField("WATERMARKADDRESS").value;
    this.addWatermarkFromText({ 
    cText: cMyText, 
    nTextAlign: app.constants.align.center,
    nRotation: 45
    Any help provided would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank Lee

    What does it say in the JavaScript console? Have you checked the documentation for addWaterMarkFromText (especially the quick bar) to see if it is supposed to work in Reader?

  • PDF Watermark - awful quality?

    I am trying to setup a simple automator printing workflow:
    [x] split pages
    [ ] add watermark(s) using pdf/eps or svg as images
    [x] join pages
    it does work using pixel images (png or jpeg), but the quality is absolutely horrible.
    Is there any way to use this function in a way that renders crisp images/text?
    The idea is to automatically add a letterhead to documents that ouput as pdf via the print panel. Unfortunately this is not possible within the application itself and I'd like to rid myself of having to insert it manually via acrobat.
    any help is greatly appreciated.
    best regards,
