[clug] watermarking / stamping pdf files.

[Antti.Roppola at brs.gov.au]

In the same way that the pre-built PDFLib library prints
"www.pdflib.com" in light grey on every page produced?
That would be very easy if you were producing the PDFs from
a non-PDF source (like source text and images).

Changing closed PDFs is quite a bit more difficult.

The proprietary PDI extenstion to PDFLib will let you open
up existing PDFs and add/change them, but that's not a freebie.

I wanted to merged PDF documents and found there wasn't a lot
out there. Though I guess if there was, there wouldn't be much
point in watermarking your PDFs anyway...  :o)

G'day all,

I'm looking for a solution to batch watermark/stamp pdf files from a
linux server.

If there's nothing out there we might be willing to contribute to
funding development of a GPL app for the purpose.

Cheers.

John

    yet the great intention was not lacking in nobility.
    Something or other gave Him victory: to us remained
    the glory of a dauntless daring.
    And even if my troop fell thence vanquished,
    yet to have attempted a lofty enterprise is still a trophy.
