public class MediaSize extends Size2DSyntax implements Attribute
Class MediaSize is a two-dimensional size valued printing attribute class that indicates the dimensions of the medium in a portrait orientation, with the X dimension running along the bottom edge and the Y dimension running along the left edge. Thus, the Y dimension must be greater than or equal to the X dimension. Class MediaSize declares many standard media size values, organized into nested classes for ISO, JIS, North American, engineering, and other media.MediaSize is not yet used to specify media. Its current role is as a mapping for named media (see
MediaSizeName
). Clients can use the mapping methodMediaSize.getMediaSizeForName(MediaSizeName)
to find the physical dimensions of the MediaSizeName instances enumerated in this API. This is useful for clients which need this information to format & paginate printing.- See Also:

Method Detail
getMediaSizeName
public MediaSizeName getMediaSizeName()
Get the media name, if any, for this size.- Returns:
- the name for this media size, or null if no name was associated with this size (an anonymous size).
getMediaSizeForName
public static MediaSize getMediaSizeForName(MediaSizeName media)
Get the MediaSize for the specified named media.- Parameters:
-
media
- - the name of the media for which the size is sought - Returns:
- size of the media, or null if this media is not associated with any size.
findMedia
public static MediaSizeName findMedia(float x, float y, int units)
The specified dimensions are used to locate a matching MediaSize instance from amongst all the standard MediaSize instances. If there is no exact match, the closest match is used.The MediaSize is in turn used to locate the MediaSizeName object. This method may return null if the closest matching MediaSize has no corresponding Media instance.
This method is useful for clients which have only dimensions and want to find a Media which corresponds to the dimensions.
- Parameters:
-
x
- - X dimension -
y
- - Y dimension. -
units
- Unit conversion factor, e.g.Size2DSyntax.INCH
orSize2DSyntax.MM
- Returns:
- MediaSizeName matching these dimensions, or null.
- Throws:
-
IllegalArgumentException
- ifx <= 0
,y <= 0
, orunits < 1
.
equals
public boolean equals(Object object)
Returns whether this media size attribute is equivalent to the passed in object. To be equivalent, all of the following conditions must be true:object
is not null.object
is an instance of class MediaSize.- This media size attribute's X dimension is equal to
object
's X dimension. - This media size attribute's Y dimension is equal to
object
's Y dimension.
- Overrides:
-
equals
in classSize2DSyntax
- Parameters:
-
object
- Object to compare to. - Returns:
-
True if
object
is equivalent to this media size attribute, false otherwise. - See Also:
-
Object.hashCode()
,HashMap
getCategory
public final Class<? extends Attribute> getCategory()
Get the printing attribute class which is to be used as the "category" for this printing attribute value.For class MediaSize and any vendor-defined subclasses, the category is class MediaSize itself.
- Specified by:
-
getCategory
in interfaceAttribute
- Returns:
-
Printing attribute class (category), an instance of class
java.lang.Class
.
