Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-3724:
-----------------------------------------

Re the difference with 1 2 3 4: this is possibly a java bug. Or a lack of 
definition what to do when the first element of a dash array is 0. JDK8 shows 
(probably) the line thickness as length, JDK9 shows nothing, Adobe shows a 
minimal line. So the solution would be to replace 0 with a small number... 
sadly this can produce JVM crashes so we'll use our current compromise, which 
is 0.035.

Re the PDFBOX-3000 improvements... thanks; but it will never be perfect, for 
example we can't do proper CMYK blending.

> Wrong size in rendering of some artifacts

>             Project: PDFBox
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Rendering
>    Affects Versions: 2.0.5
>            Reporter: Daniel Persson
>            Priority: Minor

> Seems that some artifacts get the wrong width when rendering. I've tested my 
> way to that the artifact is a stroked line and it seems the stroke width is 
> larger than a single pixel and stroke width might only be applied to how wide 
> a stroke is and the length of the stroke might have a minimal length? Poppler 
> seem to handle this stroke correctly.
> ----- OFF TOPIC
> We do text extraction with PDFBox and use poppler today to extract our images 
> because we had a lot of artifacts earlier but with the tremendous work by the 
> team to solve PDFBOX-3000 issues we are looking into using PDFBox for image 
> rendering. A lot of our examples have even more details than the poppler 
> rendered images.
> Great work people.
