Hi there,

I am having some issues accurately placing diagram items for pdf output. I am needing to create a diagram which is going to be printed out onto multiple pages, including a border around each page. However it is seeming like the PDF page is only about 98.5% of what I am expecting.

My approach is:
- Set the diagram to be measured in mm
- create my nodes
- get the top left coordinates of my diagram.bounds
- create shapenodes 2mm thick along the page edges. Each of the shapenodes is as long as the page edge minus the corresponding page margins (top + bottom, left + right), and compensated for the width of the border nodes.

It all works fine, aside from the fact I am out by a certain factor. If I scale by around 0.9845 it compensates for a couple of pages, however for larger diagrams it shows that this is not accurate and I overlap over page borders.

It seems to be a bit big for a rounding error - is there something fundamentally wrong with my approach?

Thanks!

I discovered the issue I am having: I am using version 6.0.2, and within Tools.cs in the PdfLib project, int the Unit2Unit function the scaling factor used for converting mm to inches is 25.1, when it should be 25.4.

Unfortunately when I went to correct this in the provided source, the 2010 solution was missing several of the 2010 project required to rebuild.

Thanks,

Steve
