I want to output some content that is shown in a pdf reader but not in a printed document.

The problem is that i need to print over a pre-printed page, so I want to "show" all in the screen but not the layout when it's sent to printer (as the page already have a pre-printed layout).

  • Do you mean annotations or comments in PDF? Then, this might be related: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13617745/adding-annotation-to-apache-fop – Mathias Müller Feb 14 '14 at 14:06
  • No, i mean like drawing a line, table, text or any item being visible in pdf reader but no in printed paper – jpaoletti Feb 14 '14 at 14:23
  • I don't think Apache FOP is capable of that. (Does the PDF standard support it in the first place?) It might be easier to produce two PDF files - one for display and the other one for print. – Mathias Müller Feb 14 '14 at 14:28
  • I don't really know, but that aproach is not possible sadly – jpaoletti Feb 14 '14 at 14:38

    Annotations, buttons and layers support "visible but not printable" settings; common page content objects do not. – Jongware Feb 14 '14 at 16:43
