> Environment: Windows/Linux

> I'm creating this bug report because I observed a particular behavior in
> PDFBox parsing of text positions.
> I used the command line tool (PrintTextPositions) to generate the text
> positions and remove any code logic our application could have over PDFBox
> and here is an extract of the result :
> String[17.279999,18.800049 fs=*50.0 *xscale=12.0 height=6.918 space=3.0
> width=3.9960938]-
> String[21.6,18.800049 fs=*50.0 *xscale=12.0 height=6.918 space=3.0
> width=5.999998]*
> String[28.08,18.800049 fs=*50.0 *xscale=12.0 height=6.918 space=3.0
> width=3.9960918]-
> String[31.679998,18.800049 fs=*50.0 *xscale=12.0 height=6.918 space=3.0
> width=3.000002]
> The font size is reported as 50.0 (which is indeed contained in the PDF as
> 50) but Adobe and other PDF viewers do not seem to take into account this
> font of size 50 to render the text selection. Should we rely on another
> metric from the text position, or could this font size be reported relative
> to the correct appearance the text should have?
> Best regards
