Getting absolute coordinates for text
Is there any way I can get absolute coordinate of the text. Currently pdf2json is giving me relative coordinates. I want to place an image at the coordinates I get.
Relative to what? As far as I know its relative to the anchor position, so just add that on?
@SPlatten I am getting coordinates for an element relative to its container or something. I don't know. I wanted absolute coordinates. I mean from the corner i.e. 0,0 of the page.
@abhijitborade @SPlatten Did you guys manage to get coordinates relative to the page? I'd like to modify something around a specific string but the coordinates I'm getting are very different, perhaps relative to the square container 🤷♂️
Edit: Nevermind, this other package outputs coordinates relative to the page: https://github.com/ffalt/pdf.js-extract
Sorry it’s been a long time since I worked on this I don’t think I made progress.
