Thans for sharing your experience about this Peter!
I will have to use the “heavy” comparison then for the font name! .. I thought
their might be another indication for this in my attached PDF file.
Best regards,
Hesham
I have processed over 100,000 PDFs (mainly scientific publications) and I
am reasonably certain there is no universal property that is "Bold" that
can be algorithmically detected.
"Bold" is an instruction for the authoring software to create something
that stands out visually. This can be done by:
I don't see why there *must* be such an option. Bold fonts are not a subset
of existing fonts, despite what it might look like when you use Word (which
creates fake bold fonts on its own).
They exist on their own, with their own names. True, they are usually a
variant of another existing font, but
I have 100s of PDF files used!
There must be some property used in my attached PDF file that cause the bold
font, not just the font type used! .. I see properties like ForceBold() but
it’s set to false too .. I mean; something like that?
Best regards,
Hesham
Instead of a partial match for the name you could compile a list of all the
names of the bold variants of your fonts, and then compare the font name to
that list.

Hello ,
I am trying to extract the bold text for some PDF files, but some fail like
this one:

I am overriding the processTextPosition (.) method to do this, and i have
tried all these options, but none has worked for
6 matches
