Mentioned Font size is not rendering in Generated PDF

#26956

We are mentioning the font size as 10pt in the HTML stream but generated PDF is getting rendered in 11pt
code Snapshot:

try{

String sContent=sHtml;

org.zefer.pd4ml.PD4ML pd4ml = new org.zefer.pd4ml.PD4ML();

//pd4ml.resetAddedStyles();
pd4ml.setPageInsetsMM(new java.awt.Insets(10, 21, 0, 16));
pd4ml.enableImgSplit(false);
//pd4ml.addStyle(“color:#8866ff; font-family:Times;”,true);
java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream os=new java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream();
java.io.InputStream is=new java.io.ByteArrayInputStream(sContent.getBytes());
java.io.InputStreamReader ris=new java.io.InputStreamReader(is);
pd4ml.setCookie(“JSESSIONID”,JSESSIONID);
pd4ml.setCookie(“Pega-RULES”,PEGARULES);
//String sFontsProp=”/opt/jdk1.7.0_67/jre/lib/fonts/fonts.properties”;
pd4ml.useTTF(FontsProp,false);
java.net.URL base=new java.net.URL(BASEURL);
pd4ml.render(ris,os,base);

byte[] byteArray=os.toByteArray();

// Action == Preview
if (Action.equalsIgnoreCase(“Preview”)){
String sPDF=Base64Util.encodeToString(byteArray);
ClipboardPage workpage = tools.findPage(“pyWorkPage”);
workpage.putString(“PDFDocument”,sPDF);
}

else {
tools.putParamValue(“PDFDocument”,byteArray);
}

}catch(Exception e){

throw new PRRuntimeException(e.toString());
}

Initially PD4ML renders a document as for a screen representation (converted all physical units to screen pixels with 72dpi). After the layout is rendered it is stretched or shrank to match the target paper page width. See
http://pd4ml.com/cookbook/pdf_page_formatting.htm

if you need to keep physical unit dimensions to exact on the paper, you either need to play with htmlWidth parameter or to trigger pd4ml.protectPhysicalUnitDimensions().

(A drawback of the API call is a possible misbalance of resulting sizes of objects whose dimensions given in physical units and ones defined in screen pixels)
