------------------------------------------

{quote}> [~lite1979] could you try the same test on the Zebra printer? I.e. 
using the above code change and then getting a "bad" output?
{quote}
I can confirm that the results are very similar with the Zpl Emulator.  There 
are spots where the font artifacts differ, but I can confirm that they suffer a 
similar fate.  Results attached below.  I expect  [~lite1979] to receive the 
same results on physical hardware.

 
{quote}> 1) this is a java or windows bug, that happens with small shapes. I am 
thinking of submitting it to java [...] if it is acknowledged as a java bug, 
don't expect it to be solved very soon. If it is a windows bug, probably never.

We have a commercial support contact with AdoptOpenJDK, so we can help if it's 
Java.  If it's a Windows bug, we would be very interested in any code-side 
workarounds you may be able to suggest (either Java-side or PDFBOX-side).  
Since other PDF renders can handle this on Windows, I'm inclined to think some 
form of workaround is available.

> When printing a PDF from PDFBox to a Zebra GK420d thermal label printer, the 
> text from the PDF is blurry and appears to have the top and bottom cut off 
> compared to printing the same file through Adobe Acrobat.
