Brian Carrier resolved PDFBOX-43.
---------------------------------

    Resolution: Incomplete

I found the original bug report here:

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1153181&group_id=78314&atid=552832

It does not have any of the files mentioned, so we can't reproduce.

> This issue is fixed for nont standard type3 fonts, 
> which "Wenjie broken text.pdf" uses.
> The extra spaces in the ocalc.pdf is a different problem that is

> I found that it is sometimes happened that the font size is not 
> assigned correctly.  The font size would all be 1.0 in that 
> case.  Under that circumstance, it is seldom happened that 
> the width is not correct either.  In those cases, the width is 
> often less than 1.0 which is obviously impossible.
> A word in the original text may break into serveral parts and 
> the return value of GetY() of each part may not right, causing 
> the characters overlapes with others.
> The incorrect Y value and width may obstruct us in reforming 
> the word according to the Y value and width of each part.
