The PDF content stream says "Go to position X,Y, then perform the following draw operations". There is no concept of a 'region' or 'area' for this type of thing. In some cases, the content stream might contain a crop region, but it doesn't have to, and if the draw operations don't need to be cropped, it's likely that it wouldn't have a crop region. (and oh yes - you will need to also take cropping into account if you are going to parse the draw operations to determine a bounding box - calculate the bounding box, then intersect that with the crop region) -- View this message in context: http://itext-general.2136553.n4.nabble.com/image-in-Flatedecode-stream-without-metadata-in-dictionary-tp3962812p3964336.html Sent from the iText - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ RSA® Conference 2012 Save $700 by Nov 18 Register now http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev1 _______________________________________________ iText-questions mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/itext-questions iText(R) is a registered trademark of 1T3XT BVBA.
