Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-3062:
-----------------------------------------

This isn't really about metrics, this is about text extraction. The text 
extraction fails for some files if one uses the bbox only. It just isn't 
reliable enough. Users won't be happy if some files that did extract properly 
in the past no longer extract.

People who just want the sizes can still decide whether they want to use the 
values from PDFBox, or calculate their own.
