¡Hola!

There is no need nor a reason to find out current position using PDF 
functions.

If you are outputting lines after lines, you need to keep track of the
y-position by yourself. The following simple and ugly piece of code should 
demostrate the logic:

define(MAX_Y_POS, 300);
define(ROW_HEIGHT, 4);
$y_pos = 0;
foreach ($many_rows as $row) {
if ($y_pos  MAX_Y_POS) {
makePageChange();
$y_pos = 0;
}; // if
$y_pos += ROW_HEIGHT;

printRow($row);
}; // foreach


If you use pdflib, you might want to take a look at sopdf.php - it's 
available from dataxi.sourceforge.net. Get the latest version of 
solib.tar.gz - that includes sopdf.php



 PD: Do you know Spain or spanish language? ;)

¡Si! Estudio español - este es segundo año, bastante listo :-)
Ahora leo un libro de Montalbán, de Pepe Carvalho :-)))

¹Hola!

Maybe Señor Torres wanted to know the current position of drawing text or 
an image, that is not really possible - as far as I know - in producing 
PDF document.

Juan, could you specify the actual problem you are facing? That might lead 
you to get the answer for your question.
