x/y offsets #147
|
Am I understanding things correctly in that the x/y offsets start at the bottom of the page? That is the behavior I am seeing but wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something as it seems odd. Also, is there any documentation other than the example code? Thanks for this project. Very nice. Jim |

Yes, coordinates are from the bottom left (that's how PDF works internally, so the API works in the same way). |

I have just begun my journey into the guts of PDF and didn't know that. Thank you. Also appreciate the document file. Jim |

No problem. PDFGen is a very minimal library - it's more about simplicity & reduced code than functionality. But that also means that the documentation can be a bit light. Let me know if you get stuck on anything or have any other questions. |

The docs are basically either the example application, or the doxygen docs. You can generate these with
make docs, and then browse the html ones fromdocs/html/index.htmlbut I've also attached the generated PDF here.pdfgen.pdf
