Yeah this is somewhat scary language, I wasn't really deep into text
extraction at the time and still am not. IIRC the problem is that the
height is a heuristic.

Hi,
I have a question about showGlyph() from LegacyPDFStreamEngine:
In several places, the code says "DO NOT USE THIS CODE UNLESS YOU ARE
WORKING WITH PDFTextStripper. THIS CODE IS DELIBERATELY INCORRECT".
So far, it seems to work properly with PDFTextStripper indeed but the above
message is kinda scary and I don't know when it might break.
I have checked pdfbox v3.0 but this code is unchanged. Where can I find a
correct version of showGlyph()? And can anyone explain to me how the code
is incorrect and *why is it deliberate*??
Thank you in advance,
Vincent
