Stamp (not watermark) PDF file
Stamp (not watermark) PDF file
(OP)
This script "watermark.ps" creates a watermark (=text in background) on each PDF page:
'<<
/BeginPage
{ gsave
/Helvetica_Bold findfont 72 scalefont setfont
.75 setgray 130 70 moveto 50 rotate Watermark show
grestore
} bind
>> setpagedevice
gs -q -dNOPAUSE -dSAFER -dBATCH -sOutputFile=output.pdf -sDEVICE=pdfwrite watermark.ps -f myfile.pdf
Any idea how to rewrite it to create a stamp (=text in foreground) on each PDF page?

Hi,
I dont know if it's late, but you could use /EndPage instead of /BeginPage to achieve that.
Something like this:
CODE --> PS
/watermarkText { (WATERMARK TEXT) } def /watermarkFont { /Helvetica-Bold 72 selectfont } def /watermarkColor { .75 setgray } def /watermarkAngle { 45 } def /pageWidth { currentpagedevice /PageSize get 0 get } def /pageHeight { currentpagedevice /PageSize get 1 get } def << /EndPage { 2 eq { pop false } { gsave watermarkFont watermarkColor pageWidth .5 mul pageHeight .5 mul translate 0 0 moveto watermarkText false charpath flattenpath pathbbox 4 2 roll pop pop 0 0 moveto watermarkAngle rotate -.5 mul exch -.5 mul exch rmoveto watermarkText show grestore true } ifelse } bind >> setpagedevice
