I think typical screen resolutions are 72, 96, and 108 pixels/inch. I don't think you can get the number for your monitor through a Flash/Flex API. But you can always measure your screen with a ruler. For example, if your screen is 1024x768 and the image is 14 inches wide, then there are 1024/14 = 73 pixels per inch.

Subject: [flexcoders] converting from screen display to print ready PDF

 

First off, I want to say thanks much for all the efforts not only of
the team that has created Flex but also a thanks to everyone in the
Flex community.

Now I'm gonna pose my question just to see if anyone can point me in
the right direction. I have a flex application that has a few image
elements drawn within a panel. I am then passing the X and Y coords
of those elements to a pdf generator and I'd like to create a hires
PDF that looks just like the view on the panel but with all hires
elements. The problem is that I can't figure out a smart way to
convert the pixel coords over to inch/mm/pt measurements needed by my
PDF generator.

Has anyone had to do hi-res prints via PDF before? Is there a better
way for me to do this than to try and generate a PDF on the fly?
Thanks for any help.
