What are the units of Documents.PageSize Height and Width?
posted

In assigning Documents.PageSizes.Letter (one of the predefined page sizes) to the Report.Section.ISection.PageSize, I find that the Width property is 612.0 and the Height property is 792.0. In scouring the help file on Documents, I can find no reference as to the units used here. I thought that page sizes were supposed to be in hundreths of an inch. So shouldn't these show up as 850.0 and 1100.0 for Letter size paper? I am trying to use custom sizes and can't figure out what the size values should be. If I use the Windows page setup dialog to select a size, it returns 850 and 1100 for Letter paper which is certainly different than Infragistics' properties for Letter size..

    After some analysis, I think the Infragistics page size values are in points (72 points per inch). That comes from 612/8.5=72 and 792/11=72. It certainly would be useful to be able to know what units the values are in and if this is going to be consistant since I need to convert the Windows page size values (in hundredths) to what is needed in the Infragistics document engine.
