Paulo: Are you sure this is right? Here's an excerpt from Bruno's book, (p. 229): "In glyph space, 1000 units corresponds with 1 unit in text space. For instance, for a 12-point font, 1000 units corresponds with 12 pts." Thanks in advance for any clarification. ---mr. bean Paulo Soares-3 wro

1000 units corresponds to 1 unit in text space. 1 unit in text space is 1/72 inch. Paulo > -Original Message- > From: p_repetti [mailto:pierangelo.repe...@gmail.com] > Sent: Monday, July 13, 2009 2:49 PM > To: itext-questions@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: [iText-questions] fixed wid
