Hi,

i'm tring to use the unit of font as Point but the systeme give me an error:

Must use "GraphicsUnit.World".

Why a can't use GraphicsUnit.Point???????



Thank you

Riccardo

Hi!

I don't know - that code is not executed in our application.
I'd expect font sizes to be in Points anyway.

You could replace the code (in XFont.cs)

with the following

and see what happens.
Maybe it'll work, maybe the line

requires some modification.

I think it'll work.
Please let us know whether it works or not (if it does, this change will be included with the next release).

i was tolking about:

Dim fontArialNARROW8_BOLD As New System.Drawing.Font("Arial Narrow", ConvertiPuntiInMillimetri(8), FontStyle.Bold, GraphicsUnit.Point)



on it i get the error.
)

Yep.
With a li'l change in XFont.cs (as described above) you won't get that error.

Or create the font as

and see if it works.

BTW: Why do you call "ConvertiPuntiInMillimetri" if you specify "GraphicsUnit.Point"?

I use the function ConvertiPuntiInMillimetri because of the unit in font!!!!!

Using GraficUnit.World the routine use millimetres because in the begin of routine i have setted page unit in Millimetres!!!
Dim gfx As XGraphics = XGraphics.FromPdfPage(page, XGraphicsUnit.Millimeter) as you suggest me!

I hope you understand, il you speack italian I could explain you, or in Deutche when my wife will be Here!


Thanks!

But:

Dim fontArial8 As New System.Drawing.Font("Arial", 8, FontStyle.Regular, GraphicsUnit.Point)
DOESN't WORK!!!!!

He said Must Use GraphicsUnit.World WHYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!

No need to shout!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is not the code snippet I suggested.

ConvertiPuntiInMillimetri sounds like "ConvertPointsToMillimetres" to me. Right?
If so, specifying "GraphicsUnit.Point" makes no sense!

Using GraphicsUnit.World you won't get an error.
