Issue saving a stamped document

We allow users to upload documents to our court via our website. Everything is working fine but I have a a user who can’t upload a PDF document. It errors when attempting to save the document after the time stamp is applied. We are using Aspose PDF version 11.5. I have attached a copy of the PDF file. Below is the Code:


Dim PDFlicense As Aspose.Pdf.License = New Aspose.Pdf.License
PDFlicense.SetLicense(“Aspose.pdf.Lic”)
textStamp = New TextStamp(“Filed with Office of Administrative Hearings”)

textStamp.Background = True
textStamp.XIndent = 200
textStamp.YIndent = 775
textStamp.TextState.FontSize = 8.0F
textStamp.TextState.FontStyle = FontStyle.CourierBold
textStamp.TextState.ForegroundColor = Aspose.Pdf.Color.FromRgb(System.Drawing.Color.Blue)

Dim pdfDocument As New Aspose.Pdf.Document(sInFile)
pdfDocument.Pages(1).AddStamp(textStamp)

pdfDocument.Save(sOutFile)
ERRORS on This Line of Code with 'Object not set to instance of an object’

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi Russ,


Thanks for contacting support.

I am afraid the earlier shared document appears to be broken (0KB). Can you please again try uploading the document, so that we can test the scenario in our environment. We are sorry for your inconvenience.

Maybe something happend during the upload. The file opens fine for me. I have attached it again. It should be 14,614KB in size.

I would also like to share another issue. We we having an issue where the stamp would not show. It would flash when the document was opened but then would disappear. Like it was in the background. This was only happening on some PDFs uploaded.

The code had the following line:
textStamp.Background = True
I commented this line out and now we sometimes get documents where the 1st page is readable and all the other pages are blank.
I have attached a copy of the stamped document. When open it throws an error on all pages other than page 1.
If you need the original document I will contact the filer and see if they will email it to me and upload it also.

Any word on this issue?

I had forgotten about it as we reverted to using Aspose.PDF.kit to do the stamping of documents while this was resolved and it works great.
