Description

The overlay command began to ignore the first page from the list.

For example, in the following command produces an overlay only for pages 2 and 3, skipping page 1:

-jar pdfbox-app-2.0.27.jar OverlayPDF input.pdf -page 1 overlay.pdf -page 2 overlay.pdf -page 3 overlay.pdf -position background output.pdf

 

But, if I apply the hack and add a zero page, I will get an overlay for pages 1,2 and 3:

-jar pdfbox-app-2.0.27.jar OverlayPDF input.pdf -page 0 overlay.pdf -page 1 overlay.pdf -page 2 overlay.pdf -page 3 overlay.pdf -position background output.pdf
