Yes, you are correct, Mark. a b 0
c d 0 e f 1 a and d are scale parameters, b and d are for shear/skew, and e and f are translation. This is why you see scale, shear, shear, scale, translate, translate in the method sig.

Perhaps it's something to do with the structure of the 3x3 matrix?? Thanks, Mark. -----Original Message----- From: Tilman Hausherr [mailto:thaush...@t-online.de <mailto:thaush...@t-online.de> ] Sent: 06 December 2018 17:15 To: users@pdfbox.apache.org <mailto:users@pdfbox.apache.org> Subject: Re: AffineTransform Hi, You didn't upload the PDF, attachments don't go through. Please mention what PDFBox version you are using (hopefully 2.0.13) and include your code. I assume you want to draw an image. If you would use 2480 0 0 3508 0 0 Then the image would appear at the original size. So 700 0 0 700 x y will have a weird effect. The coordinates start at the bottom left.
