I want to add an image to a specific position inside an existing PDF file using iText7.
In a different project using iTextSharp, the code was very simple:
iTextSharp.text.Image img = iTextSharp.text.Image.GetInstance(new Uri(fullPathSignature));
// Set img size and location on page
//-------------------------------------
// item.Width, item.Height
img.ScaleAbsolute(120, 62);
// left: item.X bottom: item.Y
img.SetAbsolutePosition(25, 25);
//-------------------------------------
//Add it to page 1 of the document,
PdfContentByte cb = stamper.GetOverContent(1);
cb.AddImage(img);
But I do not find the correct way to do it with iText7.
I have a PdfReader and a PdfWriter but where can I find the PdfStamper in iText7?
Or maybe there is a different way to add an image to an existing PDF file in iText7?
(I can't use iTextSharp in current project)

Document
class fromlayout
module. With that you almost don't have to care about anything.To add an image to a specific page at a specific position, you need the following code:
