Get visible page dimensions/PDRectangle instead of Media Box?
Hi guys,
I have an interesting issue where a client has combined PDF files but one
particular PDF is cropped so that half of the page is missing.
When I get the page width using findMediaBox(), it is getting the width of
the Media Box of the page, instead of what is actually visible.
PDRectangle pageSize = page.findMediaBox();
float pageWidth = pageSize.getWidth();
Do you guys know what would be a way of getting the actual visible page
dimensions?
The culprit PDF file is below. If you open this in Acrobat, it appears to
be a single page. If you open it in Adobe Illustrator, you'll see that it's
actually a double page spread.

Ah you are right. The findCropBox method gets the correct dimensions.
Thank you!
