It is possible to add text to an existing PDF file using pxplus code?

Thank you

At present there is no direct method to alter an existing PDF file within PxPlus.

I suppose technically if you analyzed and parsed out the file in binary you could, but there is no built in functionality or such currently.

If using Linux there are various free standing programs that may provide you the f7nctionality you are looking for.

Have a look at this web posting:
