Here is one, it is 600dpi, only the circles bitmap took 7.7 seconds to draw to wxPdfDC. As you can see not everything on the page needs to be rotated.
sampleOver7sec.zip

Unfortunately, the sample file is missing from the post.

You are absolutely right, I just were too lazy to try this and stuck to the ways I knew. Thanx for mentioning it again. I just have to figure out how to position everything correctly and how transparency works, but that should be managable.
Thanx!

Depending on what has to be accomplished resp after having seen a sample, I will try to offer advice how to solve the problem.

P.S.:
I started to investigate how to implement setting the transformation matrix for wxPdfDC. However, it would help to have a test case. Maybe you could provide some sample wxDC code (just the bare essentials) as you need it for your application.

maybe it works this time, only attached and not placed inline?
But like I wrote, I do not need this anymore, rotating the whole wxPdcDocument works great and leads to smaller pdfs that are created faster.

Yes, it worked. - AFAIK the forum supports only attachments not inline graphics.

Good news.

Nevertheless, I will continue to add support for setting the transformation matrix in wxPdfDC.
