Thanks for the reply, but nothing changes from the "size" point of view
if I use the GetPageSize instead of GetPageSizeWithRotation.

Still I get the A4 size and I don't know why.

Would it be useful if I attach the PDF that generates the problem?

 

Thanks

 

Massimo

You've assumed that 0,0 is always going to be one of the corners of the
page.  Don't.

 

Particularly with N-up printing, pages can be no where near 0,0.  If the
page you're dealing with was intended to be in the 3rd column, 4th row
of a 6x6 "page" page, it's corners could be just about anywhere,
depending on page rotation.

 

I tend to avoid getPageSizeWithRotation.  I get the page's rectangle,
and I get the page's rotation.  Much more control that way.

        Subject: [iText-questions] Problems detecting page sizes of PDF
documents

        Hi everyone, this is my first question.

        I'm sorry but I've to skip presentation 'cause I'm pressed ...

         

        The problem I have is the following: I'm trying to manipulate
PDF files (ex. Adding images, adding barcodes etc.).

        Usually I don't have big problems but in this case ...

         

        When I read the document page size via code 

                                reader = new
PdfReader(lOriginalFileName);

                                r = reader.GetPageSizeWithRotation(1);

        I read a size corresponding to an A4.

        The problem arises because when I read the page size in File -
Properties within Adobe Reader I see 177.8 mm x 228.6 that looks like a
custom size.

        What happens is that when I append a barcode based on page size
it's attached outside the page ...

         

        I tried to "save as" the original document using, for example,
this code

                                Document doc = new Document(new
iTextSharp.text.Rectangle(A4POINTSWIDTH, A4POINTSHEIGHT), 0, 0, 0, 0);

                                PdfCopy c = new PdfCopy(doc, new
FileStream(lWorkFileName, FileMode.Create));

                                doc.Open();

         

                                PdfReader reader = new
PdfReader(lOriginalFileName);

                                for (int i = 1; i <=
reader.NumberOfPages; i++)

                                {

                                    reader.GetPageN(i).Put(PdfName.PAGE,
new PdfRectangle(A4POINTSWIDTH, A4POINTSHEIGHT));

                                    c.AddPage(c.GetImportedPage(reader,
i));

                                }

                                doc.Close();

                                c.Close();

         

        But the resulting document still has the same problem: looks
like an A4 within code, but it's something else, though.

         

        May anybody help me please?

         

        Thanks.

         

        Regards

         

        Massimo
