Static watermark in pdf.

We have a PDF document, which should be signed by end user. Next time when someone view pdf from application or download it, system should show signature as watermark.
I have enabled signature and pdf watermarking. I am able to sign a document.
When I go to content infromation page, I see following information.
Web Location:      http://<server-address>:16200/cs/groups/public/documents/document/ndq0/mda0/~edisp/kbace43_4444004001.pdf
Get Conversion      (HTML)
Native File:      FormI9.pdf
All three are link but watermark only applears in web location link (http://<server-address>:16200/cs/groups/public/documents/document/ndq0/mda0/~edisp/kbace43_4444004001.pdf). When I download native file I don't see any watermark. I believe its because dynamic watermark only appears in weblayout of document.
In my custom UI I tried to show pdf as inline frame but its rendering native file so watermark is not appearing.
We want watermark information even if someone try to download the document, Should we go for static watermark?
As per documentation http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/doc.1111/e10978/c06_watermark.htm#BABJFHIJ, there are few prerequisites for static watermark
1. User needs to check-in a new version. My question is if new version is getting checked in and watermark would get applied immediately then how user would sign that version.
2. Document should go to IBR for conversion: I have pdf and it does not need any conversion, Can't I put static watermark on it?
3. Is there any way (RIDC api) to get url of weblayout pdf
Thanks
Sanjeev

Hi ,
In UCM watermarking is only available for the weblocation content and that too for PDF (in case for docs it has to be converted to PDF using IBR) .
Native contents are the input file for ucm which is processed and displayed in the web location url . This processing could be conversion from word to pdf and it is here that the content is watermarked .
Thanks

Can i add watermarks to PDF files using the PDF Pack?

Can i add watermarks to PDF files using the PDF Pack?

Hi Susannah,
Adobe PDF Pack does not allow you to edit a PDF file. For that, you would need Acrobat. You're welcome to try Acrobat for free for 30 days: see http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html for more information.

Add watermark to pdf stored in a table

Hi,
I would like to add watermark to pdf documents. The documents are uploaded and stored in the database. When a user will request a file, I would like to add the username and the timestamp in the requested file.
Any solutions for this (java stored proc, etc.) ?
Thanks !

Hi,
One option is to use a java pdf library such as iText ( http://www.lowagie.com/iText/ ). You could watermark the pdf's in java stored procedures.
Here's an example I found that does some watermarking (the PdfStamper section):
http://itextdocs.lowagie.com/tutorial/general/copystamp/index.php
One way to use iText would be to load the iText jars into Oracle and write a java store procedure to manipulate the pdf's in Oracle.

Can I watermark a PDF with Adobe Reader?

Embarrassing question. We have a client who wants a PDF of a document I do not want to give them a PDF copy of. Is there any way to imprint a see through image of the word "copy" across every single page of the document? Thanks so much. Catherine

You can however use Acrobat and put the watermark.
The trial version of Acrobat is good for 30 days.

Difference b/w static and dynamic pdf

hi...
I want to know how can I check for a pdf as "Dynamic or static" in a process?
Is there any specific property which can be checked through (or in) the process?
I guess, content type for both will be "application/pdf".
Please, let me know. its really urgent for me.
Thanks and Regards

XSL-FO and watermark on PDF file generated.

I am using XSLT / XSL-FO to convert my XML to PDF file for the users to take a printout. Under certain conditions I need to have a watermark COPY on the printed paper . Can XSL-FO/XSLT do this for me under certain conditions? Or has this something to do with the paper in printer having the COPY watermark.
Thanks

See http://xml.apache.org/fop/output.html#pdf-watermark
I know one more solution with table occupying entire page, with minus padded repeated header:...
<fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body">
    <fo:table>
        <fo:table-column column-width="170mm"/>
        <fo:table-header>
            <fo:table-row>
                <fo:table-cell padding-bottom="-257mm">
                    <fo:block>place background here</fo:block>
                </fo:table-cell>
            </fo:table-row>
        </fo:table-header>
        <fo:table-body>
            <fo:table-row>
                <fo:table-cell><fo:block>place document content here</fo:block></fo:table-cell>
            </fo:table-row>
        </fo:table-body>
    </fo:table>
</fo:flow>Customize padding of the header cell to place your watermark where you want on the page.

Add watermark to PDF

Hi
I am trying to add a watermark to existing pdf's in 10.4.11 & 10.5.7 using Adobe Acrobat Professional (8.1.3), having the watermark appear on top of page, show when printing, selecting a file source, fitting to page.
I have searched for an applescript solution, but have found only one, I do not no if doing a shell script is possible as I do not no shell scripting.
I have run into this link which uses pdftk
http://www.accesspdf.com/pdftk/index.html#docs
I have installed on 10.4.11 hoping it would work, but it appears not to as it looks like it was only set up for Panther (i could be wrong).
I also found this link
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=676855
which is what I was wanting, an applescript to run the above command to add a water mark, but this also appears not to work.
Does anybody no of and applescript, shell script solution to do what I am after please.
cheers

Check out Acrobat's Javascript API
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/jsapireference.pdf
page 272 has info on setting a watermark from file. The javascript can then be executed upon a PDF with AppleScript/Acrobat Pro's 'do script' command. I use the following to set a watermark from text:
tell application "Adobe Acrobat Professional"
do script "var d = app.openDoc({cPath:+path to PDF+,bHidden:true});d.addWatermarkFromText({cText:'PROOF', bOnScreen:false, bOnPrint:true, nScale:-1, nOpacity:.15, nRotation:20});"
end tell
The javascript code can be compiled as a string with applescript variables, tho I occasionally have to coerce it into Unicode text depending on which version of OS/AppleScript is at play.

Automatically watermark all PDFs with Acrobat 9 Pro

Is it possible to configure Acrobat 9 Pro so that all PDFs incorporate a predetermined watermark?

Thanks very much for responding.
I mean that what I'd like is that every time I create a PDF from a document or web page, it will automatically have my watermark inserted.
I'm a real rookie and do not know how to create a script or a batch process?

How 2 - embed watermark in PDF that obscures content if copied

I'm being asked to embed a watermark into corporate documentation that would - when an attempt is made to photocopy - obscure the content to a degree that the copy would be useless.
Can this be done in Acrobat, or is a thrid-party vendor app required?

I'm not explaining the demand well enough. You're right, the app won't effect the photo
copier. What I'm being asked to do ("attempt" is a better way of describing this) is to create a watermark in the PDF that has the attributes ofl:
a) not obscuring the document when printed from the hard-drive.
b) significantly obsuring the document if the printed document is photocopied (like the old school method of putting black type on a red background).
SHHEESH!
I've seen a few very expensive thrid-party apps that will allow for this type of "redaction", but I don;t have a $1500 budget for this little effort. So ...

Static background with PDF?

Hi,
Is there any way to create a static background in a PDF? I mean, a background that is not affected by the scrolls. If u scroll up or down only moves the text and not the background.
Why am I trying to do this "stupid" thing...? Because I'm using a swf FlashPaper in my interactive cd and since I can't customize flashpaper looks, I need to fake 'em. To customize the interface looks I just add the fake buttons I want in a layer above the one where I put the flashpaper, so what u see are my customized btns, but what u click are the flashpaper btns. Now..., I need to see the interactive cd background right behind the flashpaper text, but I cannot because the flashpaper background is not customizable and that's why I'm trying to create a static pdf background that matches my interactive cd background, so u think u see through the flashpaper, but what u really see is just a static pdf background.
Hope u understand what I'm trying to acomplish here and have some kind of solution.
Thanks in advance!

No, PDF doesn't work like that.

Watermark a PDF

What workflow do you need to use to open an existing PDF, watermark it, and then save it with its original name? I've been playing with the watermark function but I can't get it to apply the tiff or jpeg watermark image to a pdf.
Message was edited by: heathbo

OK, I got it to apply the watermark image and save it. The problem I'm running into is that it renames the PDF with random letters. How do I keep the name of the original pdf?

Add watermark to pdf version 1.1 or 1.2

Hi all
I'm currently using iText to watermark PDFs and it's working like a charm.
Some people had some trouble in watermarking PDFs and I found it was all related to old version of PDF. So I searched on the web but couldn't find any information about the features and history of PDFs (Wikipedia is nice but doesn't seem to be complete).
Thanks
Serge

Thanks for your answer!
I found a way with iText to force the PDF version and it solved my problem.

How to watermark multiple PDFs on a mac

Hi,
I have around 100 PDFs that each need to have the same watermark. I've read that a batch sequence may be the answer but i can't find the 'advanced' menu option- does it have a diferent label as i'm using an apple mac?
is acrobat even the right program? i have access to indesign and photoshop if either would be better.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thank you

Hi,
Thank you for your help! I have tried this a couple of times now but it doesn't seem to be working.
I create a new custom action by dragging the 'add watermark' box over, and when i run the action on the selected files everything seems to work- in the box on the right it works it's way down each of the 'files to be processed', putting a little green tick after each.
However, i can then close and save that file and none of the files that i've supposedly just watermarked are watermarked.
Am i missing something obvious?
Thank you!

Assemble static XFA-Based pdf with NoForms or NoXFA error: PageException: PDFM_S19003

Hello
I have a PDF which I generated with LC Forms (LC ES 8.2).
Now I am trying generate new flat PDF on Assembler service using the following DDX:
<DDX xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/DDX/1.0/">
<PDF result="out.pdf">
<PDF source="cabtf1-forpdfgenerated-STATIC.pdf" />
<NoXFA/>
</PDF>
</DDX>
I tried also to use <NoForms/> tag instead of <NoXFA>, and in both cases, this particular PDF I gives the following error:
out.pdfcom.adobe.internal.pdfm.util.PageException: PDFM_S19003: Failed to find a matching SVG named color for "2"

Any ideas? ... Not find the error code PDFM_S19003 how I can solve it?
Thanks.

Actually, it had nothing to do with a SVG named color. It had to do with the fact that my DDX statement
<DDX source='doc_source' pages='2-last' />
expects 2 pages and it was only supplied a 1 page document.
I had to add a couple steps at the beginning of my processing to fetch how many pages the PDF had and then determine whether to add the additional pages.
