The CreativeEditor SDK (CE.SDK) Engine supports three different design units for all layouting values. This includes element positions, sizes and bleed margins.
Supported design units are:
- Pixels
px
- Millimeters
mm
- Inches
in
Font sizes
Unlike all other values, font sizes are always defined in points pt
.
DPI
If a scene uses a unit other than pixel px
, the dpi
property of that scene determines all conversions between the unit and pixels whenever necessary. Therefore, the dpi
controls the export resolution of such a scenes blocks.
This dpi
value is also used in order to convert all font sizes into the design unit of the current scene. If the dpi
property is changed in a scene with pixel unit, all text block’s font sizes are automatically adjusted so that the text stays visually the same size.
