Thanks everyone for providing the answer on this. I am transcoding the example
to ColdFusion to run within the Java sub-system, so I wasn’t aware of that
notation. I see now that it should just be divided by 2. Thanks very much for
the clarification!

Hi Joe,

There appears to be an error in the example found on Page 171 of the 2E book.
This is also found online at http://itextpdf.com/examples/iia.php?id=115.
The issue is at the end of the lines where offsetX and offsetY get set. The
lines both get divided by “2f”, but there is no reference to any “f” variable
any other place in the function. And clarification that could be provided
would be appreciated, as this appears to be an error in the code.
Nope, that's not an error, that's the Java notation for indicating that the
value 2 is to be computed as a float, and not an integer.
I guess it's done so in this example to ensure a float division, and avoid an
integer one.
Cheers,
alexis
