Thank you for your efforts, I tried it and it looks good for the PDF, but my problem is in AWT and SWING itself and how they measure text. iText has much more control. :(

I posted a solution but the mailing list is really slow. Try this.

I may be mistaken, but iText uses Fractional Metrics on fonts by default?
Of course this is good, but AWT and Swing fart on Fractional Metrics.
I have successfully overridden methods in View that measure the text and now have a Fractional Metrics JTextPane that outputs to iText almost exactly as seen on the screen.
There is quite a bit of code to modify, so I won't post it all here, but if anyone is interested I will be glad to forward along what I have learned.

BTW: javas Graphics2D.drawString() unfortunantely ignores kerning(). but for kerning, you can correct the the glyph position by hand: first call Font.createGlyphVector() then use kering table from the font and correct the glyph positions with the value from the kering table, then call Graphics2D.drawGlyphVector().

Is there any way to make the AWT and PDF Spacing match closer?

It's a design option. The pdf and the awt spacing will not match in any case.

just wondering ,why PdfGraphics2D seems to ignore the font's kerning ? and why does it use FontMetrics fm = getFontMetrics(); double width = fm.stringWidth(s); instead of this: double mywidth = baseFont.getWidthPointKerned(s,fontSize); or double mywidth = baseFont.getWidthPoint(s,fontSize);
