There is an Alfresco wrapper around PDFBox called PDFToolkit which will do what you need. Google search Alfresco PDFToolkit and that should get you all you need.

Hello Bob.
Thanks for replying.. I have gone through the PDFtoolkit Addone and its source code. IText is used in this extension. I don't want to use IText.

Currently I am using Imagemagick to convert all images to pdf and also successfully added watermark into converted pdf file. But I was not able to do this type of thing for word document or text files.

Alfresco uses LibreOffice to display Word documents, and the chain is Word -> Open Office -> PDF -> SWF so you could create a custom transform chain that does Word -> Open Office -> PDF -> ImageMagik to watermark the PDF.

Alternatively you could possibly customise the OpenOffice transform which is done by LibreOffice to add a watermark at that stage.

Finally, there are versions of the PDFToolkit around that use the last GPL version of iText or you can get the source & recompile using the GPL versions.

According to my experience, when we convert <a href="http://www.rasteredge.com/how-to/vb-net-imaging/word-convert-pdf/">word to pdf</a> document, the text watermark won't be affected, and it will be appending on the converted pdf file.

PDF format is the most safest and convenient way to present the e-document and to exchange data over web. As the PDF file is like an in age while uneditable which prevent others to access it. Thus to protect your office file you can convert them into PDF format by using a professional converter so that your document can remain secure.
