RE: Page poperties?????

crap I knew that, I am getting ahead of myself , thanks for the explaination it helps.

I do have one more question,
i have a images that is 72dpi, 150x100
everytime I use the image_png method to place the image it comes out blurry, and I am trying to figure out why.

help me out I am trying to understand this, what unit of measure does PDF use
and if different than pixels doe the image_png convert said pixels to native pdf measure?

cause I am not coming up with a reason why its blurry

I am using it like so:
sub setImage{
my $photo_file=$pdf->image_png($_[0] ,-lossless => 1);
my $photo = $page->gfx;

## add photo to pdf include cordinates and size - image($photo, x, y, width, hieght);
$photo->image($photo_file, $_[1], $_[2], $_[3], $_[4]);

}

pdf object is declared at top of the script

thanks

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.
