Creation of a PDF rendition with status, metadata and qr code support (watermark, burn in)

As a user I want to burn in (watermark) status, metadata, and QR codes into a PDF rendition of an Office or CAD file.

Notes
  1. Support the following capabilities

    1. Status

    2. Metadata

    3. QR Codes that can link to the actual document

Example

IF status = "S5" then watermark/burn in = "For Construction"

Users should be able to define position of watermark on the pdf.

* Top left or right
* Bottom left or right
* Diagonal

Practical use of functionality?

Indicate file status when creating a PDF of the file.

What is the impact of not doing this?

Additional manual tasks for the originator of the files to complete in order to provide status information within the file when viewed or printed.

    The Watermarking should be based on the final consolidated PDF that would be provided to users. For example if the review Consolidator has a selection available "Accepted with Comments" this would watermarked on the PDF, then if issued outside of BCDE the users of the information would be aware of the status and by who. This would be critical for approval to stamp "Approved" on the PDF. Should include the name and date of the person who completed the action.
