> Offset of extracted coordinates

> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.8.0
> Environment: Linux Ubuntu 64 bit, Java
> Reporter: Vitalie Bureanu
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: offset
> Attachments: EnSt10_offset.pdf, EnSt11_offset.pdf, Extracted

> Hello,
> Preamble: We are glad to use PDFBox and I personally grateful to all
> developers who sustain this project. It is good work, guys!
> We have one problem. For our application purposes we extract from pdf "char
> by char" with rispective coordinates for each char. (see attached Parser)
> After this we group chars into the words. We noticed that for some pdf
> documents we have a strange "offset" for extracted rect coordinates. (see
> screens)
> The offset is seems to be incremental (not sure) - at left top corner of
> document is near to real coordinates of character, but at right bottom corner
> is near to 0.5 cm..
> If I make selection in Adobe Reader - it seems all ok.
> I attached two pdf files with offset to this post.
> If you want to see the offset "in action" you can use our service to do it at
> http://pdf2data.cloudforpeople.com/ (Please do not consider it as advertising)
> Please can you test these files and tell me if it is a really bug?
> How we can resolve it?
> Thanks,
> Vitalie
