FPDI/FPDF: Watermark and Print Multiple Pages

Question

I modified this stack question: Applying watermarks on pdf files when users try to download the files but I encountered an error, though there was a comment that says on how to

I have found a couple of things wrong with that script. To get it working change the doWatermark() method to this:-

public function doWaterMark()
{
    $currentFile = $this->file;
    $newFile = $this->newFile;

    $pagecount = $this->pdf->setSourceFile($currentFile);

    for($i = 1; $i <= $pagecount; $i++){
        $this->pdf->addPage();//<- moved from outside loop
        $tplidx = $this->pdf->importPage($i);
        $this->pdf->useTemplate($tplidx, 10, 10, 100);
        // now write some text above the imported page
        $this->pdf->SetFont('Arial', 'I', 40);
        $this->pdf->SetTextColor(255,0,0);
        $this->pdf->SetXY(25, 135);
        $this->_rotate(55);
        $this->pdf->Write(0, $this->wmText);
        $this->_rotate(0);//<-added
    }

    $this->pdf->Output($newFile, 'F');
}

I moved the line $this->pdf->addPage(); into the loop, as otherwise everything is output onto one page. I also added $this->_rotate(0); to bring the document back upright before saving it out. Pretty simple really. I have commented the changed lines for you.

I tested it on a 32 page pdf and it seemed to work fine.
