A PDFAnnotationStamp object allows you to display a word or phrase, such as “Confidential,“ in a PDF page.
A PDFAnnotationStamp object should have an appearance stream associated with it; otherwise, nothing useful is rendered.
Returns name associated with the stamp annotation.
- (NSString *)name
Note that the name value of the stamp annotation is not necessarily identical to the user-visible appearance of the stamp annotation. For example, a stamp annotation that displays “Confidential” on a PDF page may not have a name value of “Confidential”.
– setName:PDFAnnotationStamp.hSets the name associated with the stamp annotation.
- (NSString *)setName:(NSString *)name
The name must be representable in ASCII. You can set a stamp annotation’s name to help you identify it, but that name is not displayed on the PDF page. You must provide the string you want displayed on the page, such as “Draft” or “Top Secret”, in the appearance stream for the annotation.
