Hi Stefan,

you won't get a value for a block-align 'cause inside the block different aligns are possible i think.
In this sample you'll see what'spossible:

Hi,

i can read formfields with

  for i := 1 to PDFLibrary.FormFieldCount do
  begin
     x := PDFLibrary.GetFormFieldBound(i, 0);
    y := PDFLibrary.GetFormFieldBound(i, 1);
    w := PDFLibrary.GetFormFieldBound(i, 2);
    h := PDFLibrary.GetFormFieldBound(i, 3);
    s := PDFLibrary.GetFormFieldTextSize(i);
    a := PDFLibrary.GetFormFieldAlignment(i);
...
and i get also the alignment of this field in a.

now i want to read textblocks (written with align center or right)

    for f := 1 to PDFLibrary.GetTextBlockCount(id) do
    begin
      s := PDFLibrary.GetTextBlockFontSize(id, f);
      fn := PDFLibrary.GetTextBlockFontName(id, f);
      for j := 1 to 8 do
      begin
        box[j] := PDFLibrary.GetTextBlockBound(id, f, j);
      end;

but here are all textblocks minimized to there content, i can't get the original size and alignment!

Is there a way to do it?

Ciao
Stefan
