             Summary: Implement show text with positioning operator (TJ)
                 Key: PDFBOX-3992
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3992
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: PDModel
            Reporter: Dan Fickling


Why: The TJ operator is required to properly implement text justification in 
unicode fonts. The word spacing operator (Tw) is not sufficient because of 
note[1] from the PDF specification.

Github user backslash47 has provided a basic implementation if that is of any 
help:

Thanks,
Daniel.

[1] Note: Word spacing is applied to every occurrence of the single-byte 
character code 32 in a string when using a simple font or a composite font that 
defines code 32 as a single-byte code. It does not apply to occurrences of the 
byte value 32 in multiple-byte codes.
