Re: horizontal alignment of external-graphic

hi and pardon,
i "have been out of service" for more then 2 weeks....

... my problem is to center a pdf of undefined size in a box. (mostly creater the the box)
... with the shown code i can center it so i have left and right the same (negative) distance from border. so the vertical-center ist ok.
... but my picture allways begins on the top on of the box. the distance to the top border is 0. so the horizontal-center is not ok.

...i hope i gave you a detailed explanation of my problem???

mfg

Hi,

As Jeremias wrote, there is nothing wrong with this code. I have placed
my own image into the box, it had come out as intended.

Cheers,
Venkat.

Re: horizontal alignment of external-graphic

Posted by Jeremias Maerki <de...@jeremias-maerki.ch>.
Ok, it's clear to me now, but I can't reproduce the problem you describe.
In my test the image gets nicely centered (vertically and horizontally)
inside the block-container. Why don't you send me your FO and the
referenced PDF file to my e-mail address directly and I'll try to run
exactly what you have. Maybe we can figure this out then.
