Sizing Problem with Rotated Metafile

[Alexander Landa]

Hi together!

I've wrote some code to rotate enhanced metafile by 270 degree.
It works fine and graphic programms show correct result,
also correct size of rotaded metafile.

But I got the problem I can't solve:
Word and WordPad shows no correct size of rotaded metafile,
also printed output has some artefacts.

For the original metafile I see the size (at 82% scaling) as followed:
Height 9.37 cm x Width 14.63 cm

For the rotated
Height 14.61 cm x Width 9.34 cm

I do no operation with rounding.

Original metafile is transformed record by record without WINAPI,
transformed records are content of new metafile. New metafile will
be created by WINAPI SetEnhMetaFileBits(emfLength, (const BYTE*)emh);

emf is the header of original metafile except some records are also
transformed:

// transform bounds rectangle
TransformBounds32(emh->rclBounds);
TransformBounds32(emh->rclFrame);
swap32(emh->szlDevice.cx, emh->szlDevice.cy);
swap32(emh->szlMillimeters.cx, emh->szlMillimeters.cy);
swap32(emh->szlMicrometers.cx, emh->szlMicrometers.cy);

// Bounds transformation (32-Bit)
void TEnhMetaTransformation::TransformBounds32(RECTL& Bounds)const
{
swap32(Bounds.left, Bounds.top);
swap32(Bounds.right, Bounds.bottom);
};


But the result looks also not very correct because of after printing
I get always rotated height 1mm smaller as original width and
rotated width 1mm bigger as original height, independent
from original size.

For test I wrote procedure to rotate old plain metafile.
Also I convert EMF to WMF and rotate them and got exactly
the same result.

It's also no difference if I generate RTF directly with my metafiles
or insert this as pictured from files.

Please help.

Sincerely yours,
Alexander Landa
