Hi, just browsed the help text for the Paint system, and found this. It sounds contradictory to me:
BEWARE: The font size, as returned by Paint.Font.Size, is an absolute size. Its unit is the typographic point. A typographic point is 1/72 of an inch, i.e. about 0,353 mm. [Ok up to here, but now:] BUT: The font size will be modified according to the paint matrix (i.e. if you use Paint.Scale, Paint.Translate, Paint.Rotate...) [That doesn't make sense to me] The tip is to use Paint.Scale to have a coordinate system like mm or cm for instance. The font size, however, would have to stay reliable in either case: regardless of if I look at a line as 20 mm or 2 cm, the letters above this line would have to be the same size. Only if I used the paint matrix to "enlarge" or "decrease" the whole page in size (e. g. A5 - A4), I would have to ensure that each element of the page still fits in size. Don't know if it was meant this way... Or did I get this completely wrong?
