Paper (Java Platform SE 6)

This documentation differs from the official API. Jadeite adds extra features to the API including: variable font sizes, constructions examples, placeholders for classes and methods, and auto-generated “See Also” links. Additionally it is missing some items found in standard Javadoc documentation, including: generics type information, “Deprecated” tags and comments, “See Also” links, along with other minor differences.

All Implemented Interfaces:: Cloneable

Most common way to construct:

Paper paper = new Paper();

Based on 59 examples

public class Paper
extends Object
implements Cloneable

The Paper class describes the physical characteristics of a piece of paper.

When creating a Paper object, it is the application's responsibility to ensure that the paper size and the imageable area are compatible. For example, if the paper size is changed from 11 x 17 to 8.5 x 11, the application might need to reduce the imageable area so that whatever is printed fits on the page.

Constructor Summary
`Paper()` Creates a letter sized piece of paper with one inch margins.

Method Summary
`Object`	`clone()` Creates a copy of this `Paper` with the same contents as this `Paper`.
`double`	`getHeight()` Returns the height of the page in 1/72nds of an inch.
`double`	`getImageableHeight()` Returns the height of this `Paper` object's imageable area.
`double`	`getImageableWidth()` Returns the width of this `Paper` object's imageable area.
`double`	`getImageableX()` Returns the x coordinate of the upper-left corner of this `Paper` object's imageable area.
`double`	`getImageableY()` Returns the y coordinate of the upper-left corner of this `Paper` object's imageable area.
`double`	`getWidth()` Returns the width of the page in 1/72nds of an inch.
`void`	`setImageableArea(double x, double y, double width, double height)` Sets the imageable area of this `Paper`.
`void`	`setSize(double width, double height)` Sets the width and height of this `Paper` object, which represents the properties of the page onto which printing occurs.
