hi, this bug is probably solved here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1408
best regards Juraj Lonc From: "Gerrit Lober" <[email protected]> To: [email protected], Date: 04. 12. 2012 15:42 Subject: Problem with PDFont.getStringWidth() Dear all, I've the following problem with PDFbox. I try to paint a rectangle with PDPageContentStream and then put a figure in the center of this rectangle. Therefore I try to calculate the width of the text. The Method getStringWidth returns everytime the same width for all figures. That means that I get the same result for "12" and "32". Because the "1" is smaller than the "3" something is not correct and my "12" is a bit to right. What is the reason for this? I get the Font with the following code: private PDFont getFont() throws IOException { return PDType1Font.HELVETICA; } Thanks!
