@shbernal/pptxgenjs / index / coordToEmu

Function: coordToEmu()

coordToEmu(value, axisEmu): Emu

Defined in: units.ts:84

The single user-coordinate → EMU boundary. Convert each user-supplied coordinate exactly once.

Accepts (see Coord):

• a bare number → always inches (the documented unit); no magnitude guessing
• "<n>%" → percentage of axisEmu
• "<n>in" / "<n>pt" / "<n>emu" → explicit units (the escape hatch for non-inch values)

Throws on non-finite or unparseable input rather than silently emitting a degenerate 0-size.

Parameters

value

string | number

user coordinate

axisEmu

number

axis length in EMU, used only to resolve percentages

Returns

Emu
