How to calculate output page size of pdf map request?

Hello,
i have a problem regarding requesting a map as pdf and the resulting page size of the pdf in MapViewer version Ver11_B071001.
i defined a bbox in srid 82015 that has a width of 297m and a height of 420m. The scale is 1:1000.
According to the documentation the standard device resolution is 96dpi, so the above bbox will result in an image with 1122 pixel width and 1587 pixel height.
A request with format="PNG_STREAM" returns an image with exact these dimensions.
But a request with format="PDF_URL" returns a pdf document which dimension is 395.8mm * 559.9mm.
I expected a dimension of 297mm * 420mm (which is DIN A3 as pagesize), so 1mm on the printed pdf equals 1000mm in the real world (scale 1:1000).
Where am i doing wrong?
Thanks for help in advance,
Dirk

Hi Dirk,
based on some comments received from the PDF group, the PDF uses "pt" as reference.
96 dpi can be said as 96 px per in
so 96 px = 1 in
1 in = 1/96 px
1 px = 0.75pt (in 96 dpi system)
1 in = 72pt
1 in = 2.54cm = 25.4mm = 0.0254m
so in your calculation, you need to multiply by 0.75 in order to convert "px" into "pt".

  • How can i change the size of PDF files ?

    how can i change the size of PDF files? when i convert documents in the acrobat browser it seems the files become larger then normal pdf files, this is, i compare with other files that people send to me and i realise that they are smaller than my converted files, even if they have more pages.

    A lot depends on the form of the PDF. Is it graphics, a scan of a text file, pure text, or other? What version of Acrobat are you working with.
    You can do a save as to get a WORD file, but do not expect great results. The ability to get a decent WORD file depends on what the form of PDF you are working from. If it was created from WORD with tags and all, you might get good results. If not, you might get a lot of messed up results.
    Explain what you are starting with and your ultimate goal. Also check the audit of the file (should be under PDF Optimize) to see where the file information is concentrated (text, fonts, graphics, other).

    You don't.
    Adobe Reader is a reader application. You can't use it to do editing.
    If you have Adobe Acrobat on Mac or Windows, you can add pages.

  • Hi, I am using Indesign CS6, How to set the page size in Inches.

    Hi, I am using Indesign CS6, How to set the page size in Inches.

    All fields in InDesign can be entered in any measurement system. So, if you want to make an 8"x10" document and go to File>New Document and the window looks like this:
    …you can type either 8 in or 8" into the Width field like this:
    …and when you move to the next field, it will convert the eight inches into the equivalent number in the unit of measure that it is using at the moment, like this:
    … (203.2 milimeters is the same as 8 inches). You can also enter a different measurement unit into other fields once the file is created, such as the width or height of a frame, or the position of an object in the X and Y coordinates.
    If you would rather just work in inches instead of having to type the inches mark or abbreviation, go to InDesign>Preferences>General and select the Units & Increments tab. There you will see Ruler Units for Horizontal and Vertical at the top of the window. Set them to Inches and all of the fields will display in inches. If you do that to an open document, you will change the unit of measure for that document. If you do it while no documents are open, it will change the unit of measure for any new documents you create. To change the unit of measure for existing documents, you will have to open each and make the change.

  • How can I delete pages from a pdf file

    How can I delete pages from a pdf file

    Hi timk,
    None of the Acrobat.com online services allow you to edit a PDF file. But, in checking your account, I see that you purchased an Acrobat Standard subscription, and you can certainly use that to edit a PDF file.
    Have you downloaded and installed Acrobat Standard? It sounds to me as though you may be opening the PDF file in Adobe Reader, rather than Acrobat. (Reader doesn't allow you to edit PDF files.)
    If you haven't already, download and install Acrobat from https://cloud.acrobat.com/acrobat. Then, make sure that you're opening your PDF files in that rather than Reader, when you want to edit them.
    Please let us know how it goes!
    Best,
    Sara

    In Reader, you cannot. In Acrobat control-shift-D (Windows) or command-shift-D (Mac). If you tell us what version of Acrobat and your OS we can give you a gui way to do that, but it changed between versions 9 and versions 10.

  • How to detect color pages in a PDF?

    I am using a C++ Acrobat plug-in do read/edit a PDF file.
    I need to get the total number of pages in the PDF as well as the page numbers of color pages.
    So far I have been able to get the total number of pages using PDDocGetNumPages() without any trouble.
    However, I cant seem to find an API that lets me know whether a particular page is color or not. Is there a way to do this?
    Thanks in advance!

    But what if there is RGB data that means black or gray (R == G == B), does that mean black or RGB?
    There is some sample code in the SDK for iterating over the content in the PDF, and then you can get the colorspace and the color of each object.
    But you really need to do some background research on colors & colorspaces to properly achieve this goal.
