Please read page 520 of the book: It explains that form XObjects (we call them PdfTemplates, because the word form might confuse people) are referenced in the page content stream like this: q 1 0 0 1 0 0 cm /Xf1 Do Q q 1 0 0 -1 0 842 cm /Xf1 Do Q q 1 0 0 1 100 400 cm /Xf1 Do Q q 0 -2 2 0 100 400 cm /Xf1 Do Q You could try to derive the coordinates from the values between the q and the cm (these are elements of a transformation matrix). However, this may not be sufficient: this transformation could be part of an other transformation, in which case the math to get the correct coordinates gets even more difficult. If Eric has read the book, he already knew this. He knows how to get the page stream because that too is explained in the book. If he has read chapter 18, he even knows how to manipulate a PDF at the object level... br, Bruno ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
