Found this under the 'print' entry in the Rev Dictionary:

'The pageRect is the rectangle into which the card is printed, and consists of four integers separated by commas: the left, top, right, and bottom edges of the printed card, in points. (There are 72 points to an inch.) The card is scaled to fit the specified pageRect. If you don't specify a pageRect, the card's size depends on the printScale property.'

Might help in calibrating the size.

Cheers,

Luis.

Hmmm, ok. What you could then do is open a dialogue box asking for dimensions (17 inch, 19 inch, etc), resolution, type (CRT, LCD or Plasma) and dpi. If the dpi is unknown by the user you could try to default to the most common dpi for that 'type' of monitor.

Cheers,

Luis.

Hi Luis,

Yup, my main monitor is of the brand "unknown".

Hiya,

If you can determine the monitor type you could probe a database of configurations/resolution/dpi settings etc and then calculate the image size (using its coordinates) based on this information. I haven't looked into this but I reckon OSX and WXP have these in the system somewhere (so they can 'plug and play').


Cheers,

Luis.
