I have existing PDF document to which I am adding the page. I need to add some text to the page and position it at the same left offset as the text in the existing pages.

I understand that PDF does not have the notion of margins, but:

Is it possible to determine the offset of the existing text from left and top edges of the existing page?

Hi Toran!

With option 3 you can do textextraction with position- and font-data of the textcontent.
Then you only need to compare these data with width and height of the complete page.
