Subject: Re: PDFBox and Dimension
Hello,
I do not know if it is the perfect way, but I use this:
public class PDUnitsConverter {
private static final float POINTS_PER_INCH = 72;
private static final float MM_PER_INCH = 1 / (10 * 2.54f) * POINTS_PER_INCH;
private PDUnitsConverter() {
}
public static float convertMMToUnits(float mm) {
return mm * MM_PER_INCH;
}
public static float convertUnitsToMM(float unit) {
return unit / MM_PER_INCH;
}
}
If you need a 148 mm horizontal line:
moveTo(x,y); //start point of the line
//if the line is horizontal
lineTo(PDUnitsConverter.convertMMToUnits(148), y);
I hope it helps.

Hello,
To draw a line I am using moveTo and lineTo , which is working fine .
But If I have to draw a line which is 148 mm in dimension what would be the
best way to do that ?
Do I need experiment with x and y coordinates to reach exact measurement or is
there any more better way ?
Will really appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Shivangi
