Hi,
I have a business requirement to stamp every PDF which is stored as blob in Oracle 12c with a vendor name as header and footer.
We should be able to pass the vendor name as argument to the PDF and it will be placed into the header and footer.
PDF can be multiple pages.
Please help.
Thanks
Fareed

You will need some sort of software that lets you manipulate PDF's. As a blob in the database, we simply see it as binary data - to us, it could be a PDF, audio, video, a picture etc.
You could do this outside the database and save the PDF back once edited, or you could explore if there are utilities in Java, and look at loading them into the JVM within the database to do the job.
