There is also an alternative, easier way to add a Image to a PDF file. You can use AddImage method of the PdfFileMend class. The add_image() method requires the image to be added, the page number at which the image needs to be added and the coordinate information. After that, save the updated PDF file, and close the PdfFileMend object using close() method. The following code snippet shows you how to add image in an existing PDF file.

    import aspose.pdf as ap

    # Open document
    mender = ap.facades.PdfFileMend()

    # Create PdfFileMend object to add text
    mender.bind_pdf(input_file)

    # Add image in the PDF file
    mender.add_image(image_file, 1, 100.0, 600.0, 200.0, 700.0)

    # Save changes
    mender.save(output_pdf)

    # Close PdfFileMend object
    mender.close()
