Andreas Lehmkühler closed PDFBOX-968.
-------------------------------------
Resolution: Not a Problem
Assignee: Andreas Lehmkühler
This is more a question than an issue.
It's always a good idea to neutralize the graphics state before adding new
content, so that the current state can't influence the adding operation. See
AddMessageToEachPage within the examples on ow to do that
> Writing text into existing PDF - extra spaces between characters on some

> I used PDFBox to add text into existing PDF documents (kind of text stamping).
> For some pages of PDF, the space/gap between letters/characters of the text
> is much wider !
> I cannot explain how/why it happens ?!
> Sample of my code:
> contentStream.beginText();
> contentStream.setNonStrokingColor(colorText);
> contentStream.setFont(pdfFont, fontSize);
> contentStream.moveTextPositionByAmount(xText, yText);
> contentStream.drawString(messageStamp);
> contentStream.endText();
