Quick Start (SOAP mode): Creating a PDF Watermark using the Java API

The following Java code example creates a new PDF watermark named 'Sample PDF Watermark'. This watermark contains a single element. (See Creating Watermarks.)

/* 
 * This Java Quick Start uses the SOAP mode and contains the following JAR files 
 * in the class path: 
 * 1. adobe-rightsmanagement-client.jar 
 * 2. namespace.jar (if LiveCycle ES is deployed on JBoss) 
 * 3. jaxb-api.jar (if LiveCycle ES is deployed on JBoss) 
 * 4. jaxb-impl.jar (if LiveCycle ES is deployed on JBoss) 
 * 5. jaxb-libs.jar (if LiveCycle ES is deployed on JBoss) 
 * 6. jaxb-xjc.jar (if LiveCycle ES is deployed on JBoss) 
 * 7. relaxngDatatype.jar (if LiveCycle ES is deployed on JBoss) 
 * 8. xsdlib.jar (if LiveCycle ES is deployed on JBoss) 
 * 9. adobe-livecycle-client.jar 
 * 10. adobe-usermanager-client.jar 
 * 11. adobe-utilities.jar 
 * 12. jbossall-client.jar (use a different JAR file if Adobe LiveCycle is not deployed on JBoss) 
 * 13. activation.jar (required for SOAP mode) 
 * 14. axis.jar (required for SOAP mode) 
 * 15. commons-codec-1.3.jar (required for SOAP mode) 
 * 16.  commons-collections-3.1.jar  (required for SOAP mode) 
 * 17. commons-discovery.jar (required for SOAP mode) 
 * 18. commons-logging.jar (required for SOAP mode) 
 * 19. dom3-xml-apis-2.5.0.jar (required for SOAP mode) 
 * 20. jaxen-1.1-beta-9.jar (required for SOAP mode) 
 * 21. jaxrpc.jar (required for SOAP mode) 
 * 22. log4j.jar (required for SOAP mode) 
 * 23. mail.jar (required for SOAP mode) 
 * 24. saaj.jar (required for SOAP mode) 
 * 25. wsdl4j.jar (required for SOAP mode) 
 * 26. xalan.jar (required for SOAP mode) 
 * 27. xbean.jar (required for SOAP mode) 
 * 28. xercesImpl.jar (required for SOAP mode) 
 * 
 *  These JAR files are located in the following path: 
 * <install directory>/Adobe/Adobe LiveCycle ES4/sdk/client-libs/common 
 * 
 * The adobe-utilities.jar file is located in the following path: 
 * <install directory>/Adobe/Adobe LiveCycle ES4/sdk/client-libs/jboss 
 * 
 * The jbossall-client.jar file is located in the following path: 
 * <install directory>/Adobe/Adobe LiveCycle ES4/jboss/client 
 * 
 * SOAP required JAR files are located in the following path: 
 * <install directory>/Adobe/Adobe LiveCycle ES4/sdk/client-libs/thirdparty 
 * 
 * If you want to invoke a remote LiveCycle server instance and there is a 
 * firewall between the client application and LiveCycle server, then it is 
 * recommended that you use the SOAP mode. When using the SOAP mode, 
 * you have to include these additional JAR files 
 * 
 * For information about the SOAP 
 * mode, see "Setting connection properties" in Programming 
 * with LiveCycle server
