A pack built on three supplied sheets
A supply agreement standing on three PDF files the customer sent: a headed sheet under the front page, a plain sheet under every page the schedule runs to, and a page of conditions that goes in whole.
An invoice laid on a letterhead
An invoice laid on a letterhead somebody else made.
The letterhead already exists as a PDF somebody else made: a page with a header block on it and nothing else. It is read, brought in as a drawing, laid under the new page, and the invoice is set on top of it.
Nothing about the letterhead is rewritten: its fonts, its colours and its marks come across exactly as they are. This is how a document server uses the letterhead a customer supplies without having to understand, or set again, anything on it.
What this example shows
- A page of an existing PDF, read and reused as it stands.
- Its fonts and colours carried over untouched.
- New content composed on top of imported stationery.
