Hello,
I've experimented with the Extract Text Sample and have been successful in 
extracting text. As a requirement, I only extract text that is in a certain 
named separation and at (integer) rotation angle values. 

Now there is a requirement to get the start (x,y) position of the each of the 
rotated text strings. I tried capturing the TextPostion of the start of the 
line during the extraction process (writeString) and then applying a "reverse 
rotation" using the geometric x'=xcosθ-ysinθ etc. formula" but that didn't 
appear to give the correct results, as I am seeing negative coordinate values. 
I suspect that there is a matrix transformation that I am missing.

Now I may have misunderstood the process here, so if someone could point me in 
the right direction then I would appreciate that. 

Thanks in advance.
