Get page rotation from current document SOLVED

[KarlTH]

Hello Tracker-Support,

I am using the rectangle annot to determine its coordinates (X, Y, Width, Height) to replace it with a signature field. This works fine except if the page has been rotated because all values are the other way around.

This is how I determine the coordinates of the rectangle annot in VB .NET:

Code: Select all

PDFXCViewer.DoDocumentVerb(_MainPresenter.Model.PDocID, "Pages[" + PDPage.ToString + "]", "GetAnnotRect", _oDataIn, _oDataOut, 0)

How can I detect if the page from the opened document has been rotated?

In PDF Structure, I can see this by the parameter /Rotate from the Mediabox but I do not know how I get this out with the PDF-XChange Viewer control.

Code: Select all

5 0 obj
<<
/Type /Page
/Annots [10 0 R 11 0 R]
/Parent 3 0 R
/Rotate -90
/Contents 12 0 R
/MediaBox [0 0 842 595]
/Resources 13 0 R
>>
endobj

Best regards,

Karl

Hi Karl.

Use:

Code: Select all

PDFXCViewer.GetDocumentProperty(_MainPresenter.Model.PDocID, "Pages[" + PDPage.ToString + "].Rotation", _oDataOut, 0);
int pageRotation = (int)_oDataOut;

Hi Vasyl,

yes that helps! It could be so easy if I would better read the SDK documentation!


Thank you so much,
