`pdfGetTextRect`

Read back the current flow-text rectangle set by

Category	Text state / flowed text

Purpose — Read back the current flow-text rectangle set by pdfSetTextRect.

Declarations

BOOL32 __stdcall pdfGetTextRect(PPDF IPDF, double* PosX, double* PosY, double* Width, double* Height);

Delphi

function pdfGetTextRect(const IPDF: PPDF; var PosX, PosY, Width, Height: Double): LongBool; stdcall; external 'LumasPdf.dll';

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`IPDF`	`PPDF`	Instance handle.
`PosX`, `PosY`, `Width`, `Height`	`Double*`	Receive the last-set rectangle, regardless of the return value (see Return value).

Return value — TRUE if a rectangle with positive Width and Height has been set (FHasTextRect); FALSE otherwise. The out-parameters are still written even when the return value is FALSE — they carry whatever values were last passed to pdfSetTextRect (possibly a degenerate 0×0 rect if never set), so check the return value, not just the out-parameters, to know whether a valid rectangle is active.
