Jose Novacho created PDFBOX-3890:
------------------------------------
Summary: The operator Tz is not available when creating new PDF
using PDPageContentStream
Key: PDFBOX-3890
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3890
Project: PDFBox
Issue Type: Bug
Components: PDModel
Affects Versions: 2.0.7
Reporter: Jose Novacho
When creating new PDF file using the _PDPageContentStream_ there is no option
to set horizontal text spacing. The horizontal text spacing operator (Tz) is
implemented in
_org.apache.pdfbox.contentstream.operator.text.SetTextHorizontalScaling_ but
that's not possible to use when creating new PDF.
Minimal working example:
{code:java}
PDDocument document = new PDDocument();
PDPage page = new PDPage();
document.addPage( page );
PDFont font = PDType1Font.HELVETICA_BOLD;
PDPageContentStream contentStream = new PDPageContentStream(document, page);
contentStream.beginText();
contentStream.setFont( font, 12 );
contentStream.moveTextPositionByAmount( 100, 700 );
contentStream.drawString( "Hello World" );
contentStream.endText();
contentStream.close();
document.save( "Hello World.pdf");
document.close();
{code}
The workaround at this moment is to use
_PDPageContentStream.appendRawCommands("50 Tz");_
But this method is deprecated.
