Add a page to PDF document using iTextSharp

I would like to add a page to an existing PDF document containing simple text.

I have tried the following code that I found on the internet, but so far I haven't got it to work:

PdfReader reader = new PdfReader("1.pdf");
Document document = new Document(reader.GetPageSize(1));
PdfCopy copier = new PdfCopy(doc, new FileStream("2.pdf", FileMode.Create));

for (int pageCounter = 1; pageCounter < reader.NumberOfPages + 1; pageCounter++)
{
    //byte[] page = reader.GetPageContent(pageCounter);
    copier.AddPage(copier.GetImportedPage(reader, pageCounter));
}

c开发者_JAVA技巧opier.NewPage();
copier.Add(new Paragraph("This is added text"));

document.Close();
reader.Close();

Please let me know how to do this right?

Try This code: It adds a new page with existing pdf and add watermark text to that last page.

private string AddWaterMarkPageToFile(string fileName, string userComments)
        {
            string outputFileName = Path.GetTempFileName() + ".pdf";
            //Step 1: Create a Docuement-Object
            Document document = new Document();
            try
            {
                //Step 2: we create a writer that listens to the document
                PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.GetInstance(document, new FileStream(outputFileName, FileMode.Create));

                //Step 3: Open the document
                document.Open();

                PdfContentByte cb = writer.DirectContent;

                //The current file path
                string filename = fileName;

                // we create a reader for the document
                PdfReader reader = new PdfReader(filename);

                for (int pageNumber = 1; pageNumber < reader.NumberOfPages + 1; pageNumber++)
                {
                    document.SetPageSize(reader.GetPageSizeWithRotation(1));

                        Chunk fileRef = new Chunk(" ");
                        fileRef.SetLocalDestination(filename);
                        document.Add(fileRef);
                    }

                    PdfImportedPage page = writer.GetImportedPage(reader, pageNumber);
                    int rotation = reader.GetPageRotation(pageNumber);

                }

                // Add a new page to the pdf file
                document.NewPage();

                float angle = 45;

                PdfContentByte under = writer.DirectContentUnder;
                BaseFont baseFont = BaseFont.CreateFont(BaseFont.HELVETICA, BaseFont.WINANSI, BaseFont.EMBEDDED);
                under.BeginText();
                under.SetColorFill(BaseColor.LIGHT_GRAY);
                under.SetFontAndSize(baseFont, fontSize);
                under.ShowTextAligned(PdfContentByte.ALIGN_CENTER, userComments, xPosition, yPosition, angle);
                under.EndText();

You can't use PdfCopy to add Pages. You will need to create a new pdf and add it If you need to do that (PdfCopy is the best for merging pdf).

I've added an example how to add a footer too:

PdfReader reader = new PdfReader("1.pdf");
Document document = new Document(reader.GetPageSize(1));
PdfCopy copier = new PdfCopy(doc, new FileStream("2.pdf", FileMode.Create));

for (int pageCounter = 1; pageCounter < reader.NumberOfPages + 1; pageCounter++)
{
    // get page
    PdfImportedPage page = copier.GetImportedPage(reader, pageCounter)
    // add content to imported page
    PageStamp ps = pdfCopy.CreatePageStamp(page);
    PdfContentByte cb = ps.GetOverContent();
    // set color
    cb.SetColorFill(BaseColor.BLACK);
    // get font
    BaseFont baseFont = BaseFont.CreateFont(string.Format("{0}\\Fonts\\arialuni.ttf", Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("windir"), BaseFont.CP1252, BaseFont.NOT_EMBEDDED);
    cb.SetFontAndSize(baseFont, 12);
    cb.BeginText();
    cb.ShowTextAligned(PdfContentByte.ALIGN_CENTER, printLangString, 100f, 40f, 0f);
    cb.EndText();
    // Accept changes                    
    ps.AlterContents();
    // add page
    copier.AddPage(page);
}

using (var ms = new MemoryStream())
{
    Document doc = new Document(PageSize.A4);
    PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.GetInstance(doc, ms);
    writer.CloseStream = false;
    doc.Open();
    doc.NewPage();
    doc.Add(new Paragraph(error, fontRed));
    doc.Close();
    writer.Close();
    ms.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
    PdfReader rd = new PdfReader(ms);
    for (int pageCounter = 1; pageCounter < reader.NumberOfPages + 1; pageCounter++)
    {
        copier.AddPage(copier.GetImportedPage(rd, pageCounter));
    }
    rd.Close();
}

document.Close();
reader.Close();
