SetOrigin not affecting Text Extraction

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   By default the origin is set to the bottom left hand corner.  I changed this to the Top Left Hand corner using the SetOrigin function (I tried before and after I opened the PDF File), but the coordinates from the DAExtractPageText function did not change and are still referenced from the bottom left hand corner.

So when extracting text from a PDF file is it always referenced from the bottom left hand corner regardless of what I set the Origin to?
