             Summary: Text extraction getting zero font height, bad widths, and ? for text in this PDF with Type 3 Fonts
                 Key: PDFBOX-2508
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-2508
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.8.7
            Reporter: Fred Andrews


Attached file is just line one from a file where every piece of text has these problems.  All the other lines were removed with Nitro to make a small test case.

This is the output from PrintTextLocations example:

Fontsize is way too big (should be more like 8), value for space is ridiculous, height is too small.  And each character is coming through as a '?'.  The original file has this on every piece of text.
