As stated your question does not make much sense. If you created the PDF you kind of know the height. As you can write content at any arbitrary location on the page the idea of coming to the end does not mean much. If you are trying to write out a large block of text that may go over the end of a page you need to figure out how to deal with that, given your circumstances. If you write out individual lines less that a page width long then just track the Y value of the page position and something along the lines of if CurrentY < 0 + bottomMargin new page If you are writing out blocks of text you need to do something similar but on a block level (I don't use this method) if CurrentY - block height < 0 + bottomMargin new page And or If I've totally misunderstood you the positioning (x,y) starts at the bottom left so a y of 0 is the bottom of the page. _____ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Ben Sent: Wednesday, September 05, 2007 11:03 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [perl-text-pdf-modules] Page poperties?????
