Title: Re: Accurate printing onto pre printed forms

There should not be a problem getting exact coordinates Printing a PDF to a Postscript printer.

A non-postscript printer may have problems but this is what Postscript was invented to fix.

Many thanks for the responses.

Leonard, I accept that no printer can print at the very edges of the paper, but I believe that my issue is about whether the x, y co-ordinates used by PDF get measured from the very edge or not. In other words, how to arrange things so that a given point say (72, 72) would appear at exactly 1 inch in from the left paper edge and 1 inch up from the bottom paper edge, no matter what printer the print was done on.
