Michael Klink commented on PDFBOX-5236:
---------------------------------------
Indeed, and that's not the only incorrectly rejected instruction.
According to ISO 32000-2:2020, *Figure 9 — Graphics objects* does allow
*General graphics state* operators in text objects. And not only **w** is in
this category, **w, J, j, M, d, ri, i, gs, q, Q** are.
Yes, in the 2020 update of ISO 32000-2 **q** and **Q** have become general
graphics state operators, too. This might break some code.

>
> PDPageContentStream.setLineWidth(float) incorrectly throws an exception that
> setLineWidth is not allowed within a text block. setLineWidth uses PDF
> operator "w", which according to the PDF specification, it is allowed and is
> used to set the stroke line width for text outlines when using either STROKE
> or FILL_STROKE rendering modes. This is shown on page 392 of the
> specification at

> in Example 5.4.
