> Applications that use the TextPosition objects generated by PDFStreamEngine
> sometimes have to be aware of the text rotation angle so that they can handle
> text that is not horizontal. For example, we process many PDFs that have
> vertically-oriented copyright info that appears either next to an image or at
> the right/left size of the page; this content doesn't extract correctly
> because it's vertical rather than horizontal. Applications that attempt to
> join TextPosition objects have difficulty because they cannot currently
> distinguish between vertical and horizontal text.
