DynaPDFMBS.SetTemplBBox(TemplateHandle as Integer, PageBoundary as Integer, BBoxRect as DynaPDFRectMBS) as Boolean

Templates support the bounding boxes kpbMediaBox and kpbCropBox only. The latter one is considered by PlaceTemplateEx() only.

A crop box can be set to clip the contents of a template without changing its bounding box. This can be useful when placing imported pages on another page.
If BBox is set to nil, the bounding box is deleted. Note that only the crop box can be deleted.

Returns true on success or false in case of an error.

DynaPDFMBS.SetUseImageInterpolation(Index as Integer, Value as Boolean) as Boolean

If nothing was specified (this is the default), a viewer applications can only use a heuristic to determine whether image interpolation should be enabled or not. The result is then of course application specific.
The parameter Handle must be a valid image handle that was returned by a DynaPDF function like InsertImage(), InsertImageEx(), or InsertImageFromBuffer(), for example.

If the function succeeds the return value is true. If the function fails the return value is false.

See also SetUseImageInterpolation function in DynaPDF manual.

DynaPDFMBS.SetUserUnit(value as single) as boolean

A user unit acts like a scaling factor. The page format and all page coordinates are multiplied with this factor in a viewer application. The default size of a PDF unit is 1/72 inch. User units can be useful if the page format would be too large to be expressed in standard PDF units. The largest page format in PDF is limited to 14400 units or 200 inches. This limit can be extended with the user unit.
The largest value that is supported is 75.0 which results in a maximum page format of 15,000 x 15,000 inches or 1,800,000 units. Note that all functions which return page coordinates or page properties do not consider the user unit.
The page format must still be in the range 3..14400 units. It is also strongly recommended to set the user unit only if necessary. This is only the case if the required page format is larger 14400 units.
Default value = 1.0

Return values:
If the function succeeds the return value is true. If the function fails the return value is false.

See also SetUserUnit function in DynaPDF manual.

DynaPDFMBS.SetUseStdFonts(value as Boolean) as Boolean
