I'm having problems with a very simple application (see below):
#----------------------------
from PIL import Image
#
# Read in 8.5 x 11 inch TIF invoice scanned at 100 dpi
#
im=3DImage.open("c:\\test\\invoice.tif")
#
# Save it in PDF format
#
im.save("c:\\test\\invoice.pdf","PDF")
#----------------------------
The problem is that the PDF that is output by PIL is
11.81 x 15.28 inches in size. If I open the TIF
file in PhotoShop it shows 100 dpi, 8.5 x 11 inches.
I don't understand what is happening or why.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
Regards,
Larry Bates
