Ch. Schlatter created PDFBOX-3745:
-------------------------------------
Summary: Wrong character width
Key: PDFBOX-3745
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3745
Project: PDFBox
Issue Type: Bug
Components: PDModel
Affects Versions: 2.0.5
Environment: Windows 10
Reporter: Ch. Schlatter
Attachments: p421.jpg, p42.pdf
I tried to convert a PDF file to an image. But there is a error with the
character width computation. As you can see inside the blue box, there are gaps
after every umlaut mark (ä ,ö ,ü). Some characters in the font doesn't contain
any width information. The distance between the character is handled by
position adjustment. For example:
[1., -278, ), -844, H, -722, ä, -556, u, -611, sliche P, -667, f, -333, lege] TJ
I guess there is an error in the font.getWidth() implementation. If I call
font.getWidth("ä") it returns 556. (Instead of 0, what would fit)
I attached the PDF and the converted image.
