1 millimeter = 0.0393700787 inch = 25.4 millimeters per inch 72 points in an inch
72 / 25.4 = 2.8346 points in a millimeter 25.4 / 72 = .35277 millimeters in a point example: image is 30mm from top and 50mm from left image is 85pts from top and 141pts from left. I think I have done my math right, if I haven't, at least you see how the conversion works Hope this helps Bill Ensley Bear Printing -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Koen Swolfs Sent: Wednesday, March 24, 2004 7:25 AM To: Help iText Subject: [iText-questions] Positioning images based on millimeters Hello, I would like to add some images (jpg files) to a pdf document, it is very important in this case that the jpg files are well positioned on the page (at millimeter level!). For example: I would like to position image1 at 30mm from the top of the page and 50mm from the left of the page. Is there a way to position the image based on millimeters, instead of x- and y-coordinates? Or how can I convert x- and y-coordinates to millimeters? Any help is appreciated!
