Link in wrong position but text in correct position when adding PdfTextWebLink to existing PDF

[Scott Hoelsema]

I am attempting to add a new text link to a web address in an existing PDF using PdfTextWebLink. I have tested and am able to create a new PDF with a PdfTextWebLink following the Syncfusion code sample here. Using either of the signatures for PdfTextWebLink.DrawTextWebLink() works when creating a new PDF. When working with a page in an existing PDF and following the Syncfusion code sample here (see attachment for the result of running this code), however, the text is drawn to the PDF but it is not a link. This is specifically using the overload where the first parameter is PdfGraphics.

Is this a bug in the source? Why is it not being added as a link when editing a PDF?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your reply. I have determined that the link is in the document, but somehow it is at the wrong y coordinate position. The text is in the right position but the link is not. See the attached PDF for an example The link is added in the proper x coordinate but the y coordinate is measured from the bottom edge of the page rather than the top edge. So seemingly the text is added using GDI coordinates but the link is added using PDF coordinates.

What would make this incorrectly placed y coordinate happen? How can I resolve it?
