I checked the height/width/location of the pages I am writing and I'm definitely not writing the ImportedPage objects on top of each other.
When the page first draws it appears okay. But when you force a redraw (e.g. zoom), the text overlaps. For example, in the img I attached, the last two lines are: Carboyhydrates (g): 63 Carbohydrate Units: 4 If I only call addTemplate up to a certain point on the y-axis, text will redraw fine. But if I continue adding all the PDFs I need, then the redraw gets messy. The original PDFs that I am adding look fine and do not exhibit this problem. All PDFs have an embedded TT font which is being used for the text. I am wondering if anyone has seen a problem like this and can suggest solutions - could this be a problem in how the PDFs are created? how I am reading them and writing them? how I can diagnose the problem? a known problem in Acrobat?

What do you want to achieve? Do you want them all next to eachother (in that case, you should add each ImportedPage at different coordinates)? Or do you want each ImportedPage on a new page (call newPage() every time you added an ImportedPage to the document). ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: INetU Attention Web Developers & Consultants: Become An INetU Hosting Partner.
