Dear iText engineers,

This is Jing from IBM, the product I supported is using your open source
iText-2.1.5 now, and it always works very well. But we met a difficult
problem now, when using an AIX server, the Arabic text are misaligned when
published to pdf, while it works well on Windows Server. I searched in your
forum but failed to find the similar case. Have you ever dealt with those
problems? Any suggestions?


Here is our code fragment:

com.lowagie.text.Font pdfFont;
...
pdfFont = (com.lowagie.text.Font)FontMapper.getInstance().makePdfFont
(styleFragments[z], resolution, false);
fonts.add(pdfFont);
BaseFont baseFont = pdfFont.getBaseFont();
fragmentWidth = baseFont.getWidthPoint(fragment, styleFragments
[z].getFontSize()) / (16 / ((float)resolution / 72.0f));

the argument fragment is the same Arabic string got from one form template,
while the styleFragments[z].getFontSize()= 224, in Windows,  the result of
fragmentWidth: 250.95001; while in AIX, fragmentWidth: 242.606. Why the
result are different on different OS? Thanks very much!



Best Regards,
Jing Fan (樊静)
