htmlToPdfOptions.StartPosition = -.75f; is ignored in the latest release.

Please check if you have set it every time. This property is automatically reset after every conversion.

If that's not the problem, please send us a test app and we will investigate further.

Thanks

The app this is in has gotten very large.

I was able to confirm on my end the only difference was swapping out the 2017 version vs the 2018 version.

Have you tested a negative start position with 2018 version?

We did test it here. You need to isolate the problem into a test app and send us the test app, not your actual large real application, We will not look into that. See here for more details:

I tracked down the issue.

If the page begins with <div style="page-break-before: always;">... it ignores the negative start position in the latest release. This wasnt a problem in 2017 version.

So, the following html would start 1.5f down from the top of the first page, but it should start at 0f.

Code: C#
EO.Pdf.HtmlToPdfOptions htmlToPdfOptions = new EO.Pdf.HtmlToPdfOptions();
            htmlToPdfOptions.PageSize = new SizeF(16f, 9f);
            htmlToPdfOptions.OutputArea = new RectangleF(0.0f, 1.5f, 16f, 7.65f); 
            htmlToPdfOptions.StartPosition = -1.5f;
