John Hewson commented on PDFBOX-1645:
-------------------------------------
The PDFBOX-1844 patch fixes several issues with commands having unexpected
numbers of operands, I think this issue can be closed and if you're still
encountering glyph parsing issues then it would be better to open a new bug
issue to report it and we can figure out a specific fix rather than silently
dropping charstring commands.
> [PATCH] Improved the accuracy of the bounding box for each rendered CFF glyph

> Key: PDFBOX-1645

> In a previous patch to the CharStringRenderer class, I resolved the rendering
> issues and added a method to retrieve the bounding box for a CFF glyph. This
> utilized the GeneralPath.getBounds() method to retrieve it's bounding box.
> Unfortunately it was found that the method uses the control points of the
> bezier curves instead of the actual lines and was not very accurate. I have
> therefore added several new methods to calculate the correct extents of the
> glyph so that now it matches that of the measurements found in tools like
> FontForge.
> As a side note, there are several checks which were originally added in my
> patch which were unfortunately removed relating to the number of arguments
> provided with an operator. I have one Adobe Font (Adobe Heiti Standard -
> CID-Keyed OTF) which has one or more glyphs which trip up on this and cause
> an Array index out of Bounds exception. Each glyph renders correctly even
> though this issue occurs and therefore would be grateful if these could be
> left in. I have re-added these checks back with the patch I am about to add.
