Thank you. I now set the Userunit to 200 and x/y to 8800/6800, thus should be 44 inches by 34 inches.

Properties: iText 2.0.1, PDf Version now 1.6 (Acrobat 7.x) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Paulo Soares Sent: Wednesday, April 11, 2007 6:15 AM To: Post all your questions about iText here Subject: Re: [iText-questions] What is the maximum page size for PDF iniText? This has nothing to do with iText but rather with Acrobat limitations. From the Pdf Reference: The minimum allowed page size is 3 by 3 units in default user space; the maximum is 14,400 by 14,400 units. In versions of PDF earlier than 1.6 (Acrobat 7.0), the size of the default user space unit was fixed at 1 ⁄ 72 inch, yielding a minimum of approximately 0.04 by 0.04 inch and a maximum of 200 by 200 inches. Beginning with PDF 1.6, the size of the unit may be set on a page-by-page basis; the default remains at 1/72 inch.
