PDFsharp & MigraDoc Forum

Hi,

I've been trying to draw a filled rectangle over an entire page from the left to the right edge. I've tried both using xgraphics drawrectangle and by using a textframe in migradoc. Positioning is correct, size as well as it spans over the entire page. However, I noticed a tiny (~1px) white border on the right side of the page which was not covered by the drawn rectangle. I have also been trying to draw rectangles larger than the page with the same results.

In other words, I cannot draw over the entire page as there will always be a tiny white edge left.
Any ideas?

How do you view PDF files? Could this be a limitation of the PDF viewer?

Is the gap always 1 px, even if you change the zoom level?

Hello, thanks for answering!

I viewed it in Adobe Acrobat Reader X version 10.1.8. As you suggest, it may be an issue with the viewer because of the following two reasons:

- The error did not appear in the built in pdf-viewer in chrome (no idea what it uses for rendering)
- Suddenly today, in the same version of Acrobat Reader, the error did not appear again

It did appear in most different zooming levels, but not all as I remember from last friday. And yes, it always showed up as a 1 pixel broad white border, even when zooming out.
Since I cannot make the issue reappear now, although using the same code when creating the document, this probably is a rendering issue rather than an issue with migradoc/pdfsharp.

Weird though
