Richard Brown commented on PDFBOX-3333:
---------------------------------------
I'm unsure in JIRA how to link a comment to a file, sorry for the confusion.
What I did:
Used PDFBox to fill a PDF template and generated a thumbnail of the template
using pdfRenderer.renderImage. The PDF was generated successfully as was the
thumbnail
What I expected to happen:
I expected the PDF to be generated correctly (it appears to be so in Acrobat)
and the thumbnail to be an accurate representation of the PDF.
What happened instead:
The PDF that was generated looked correct in Acrobat (rotated text), but both
the thumbnail generated and the Mac's file preview shows the text as being
unrotated. Only rotated text seems to be affected.
I tried to include samples of the template, the filled form, and the thumbnail.
I also included samples of the filled form and thumbnail from iText as a
counter example.
Hope that helps clarify things. Point: Is there a way to associate a file with
a comment so they're linked?

> When filling a PDF field that is rotated the resulting generated PDF has the
> correct format. But when you generate an image of the PDF the image has the
> text in those rotated fields as not rotated.
> I have tried a variety of templates and they all do the same thing: view the
> preview of the PDF and see unrotated text. Open the PDF and see the
> correctly rotated text.
> Note that I generate the same PDF using iText 5.5.9 and the preview is
> correct, the text is correctly rotated. I'm basically bouncing back and
> forth between iText and PDFBox trying to find a working solution.
> If it makes any difference I'm using an FDF file to fill with iText and an
> XFDF file for PDFBox because I can't figure out how to load an FDF in 2.0.1.
