PDFsharp & MigraDoc Forum

Hello,

I'm using PdfSharp to convert a bmp into a pdf file in a C# program.
So I have my image as a Bitmap object, and my pdf as a PdfPage object.
My goal is to have a pdf page size as close as possible to my image.

I'm using the PdfPage Width and Height Properties and set them to my Bitmap Width and Height.
Except Bitmap uses pixels as unit and PdfPage uses drawing.Xunit.

My question is the following : How can I convert pixels to drawing.Xunit ?

I'm using PdfSharp dll version v2.0.50727, GDI+

PDF files have no pixels. Specify the desired size when drawing the image (using XUnit).

The are 72 points per inch. How many pixels per inch there are in your bitmap depends solely on your bitmap. Conversion will be simple if you know the DPI of your bitmap.

I've already searched a bit around the web, but apparently not enough or not with enough attention.

With the DPI information I should be able to figure it out. I just need to get my bitmap DPI which is ... another thing.

Thank you for your quick, and very useful reply !
