import java.nio.channels.*;
import java.nio.file.*;

public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        try (FileChannel fileChannel = FileChannel.open(Path.of("Document.pdf"));
             PdfDocument pdfDocument = new PdfDocument(fileChannel)) {

            Page page = pdfDocument.getPages().getFirst();

            createRemoteLinkAnnotation(page, "Invoice.pdf", 0);

            try (WritableByteChannel channel =
                         FileChannel.open(Path.of("Result.pdf"),
                                 StandardOpenOption.CREATE,
                                 StandardOpenOption.WRITE,
                                 StandardOpenOption.TRUNCATE_EXISTING)) {

                pdfDocument.save(channel);
            }
        }
    }

    static void createRemoteLinkAnnotation(Page page, String fileName, int pageIndex) {
        float textX = 50;
        float textY = 700;
        TextFragment textFragment = new TextFragment() {{
            setText("Open Invoice");
            setLocation(new PointF(textX, textY));
        }};
        page.getFragments().add(textFragment);

        float textWidth = textFragment.measure().getSize().getWidth();
        float textHeight = textFragment.measure().getSize().getHeight();
        float offset = 10;

        LinkAnnotation link = new LinkAnnotation(new RectangleF(
                textX - offset,
                textY - offset,
                textWidth + offset * 2,
                textHeight + offset * 2));

        RemoteGoToAction action = new RemoteGoToAction();
        action.setPageIndex(pageIndex);
        action.setFileSpecification(
                new FileSpecification(){{
                    setFileName(fileName);
                }});
        action.setOpenInNewWindow(true);

        link.setAction(action);
        page.getAnnotations().add(link);
    }
}
