In other words, the mediabox is 11 x 9 inch. The 0 rotation: are you sure you used the method getPageSizeWithRotation()? Because when you use getPageSize(), you'll always get rotation 0 even if the page is rotated! Maybe you are using the wrong method, and maybe the rotation is 90 degrees... > but in acrobat it does not > look like a landscape image and the document properties say it is 8.50x11.00 > in. Suppose I was right about your first mistake. Then the MediaBox is 11 x 9 inch rotated 90 degrees. Now you stamp it, based on those measurements. But what if the document has a CropBox that is smaller than the MediaBox? That would explain the behavior you're explaining. > Not only that but the text orientation looks just the > same in acrobat as if the original was rotated 90...very odd. Did you read chapter 2 of "iText in Action"? If so, did you understand the concept behind the method setRotateContents? If so, please explain what's odd about this. > I'd love to > just detect when width > height and rotate -90 but I can not do that for > true landscape documents otherwise the text is sideways and the stamp is in > the wrong place. Read the documentation. Chapter 2 and 14 are probably crucial if you want to understand what happens. -- This answer is provided by 1T3XT BVBA http://www.1t3xt.com/ - http://www.1t3xt.info ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ iText-questions mailing list iText-questions@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions Buy the iText book: http://www.1t3xt.com/docs/book.php
