hi,

I am wondering how to add text or table into existing pdf, not write txt or table into new pdf.

Thanks Eric Xin

Unfortunately I don't know. But you should start like that ... and then go thru $PDF variable 

Import-Module .\PSWritePDF.psd1 -Force

$FilePath = "$PSSCriptRoot\Example12.ReadingTable.pdf"
$PDF = Get-PDF -FilePath $FilePath
$PDF
Close-PDF -Document $PDF

I tried finding some c# docs around itext 7 how to find an existing table - and failed. Maybe you will have more luck.

Sorry, I meant add text into an existing pdf, not must have especially a table object.

Thanks Eric Xin
