[jira] [Commented] (PDFBOX-1402) Improve handling of multiline text boxes

["Will May (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1402?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13615790#comment-13615790 ] 

Will May commented on PDFBOX-1402:
----------------------------------

Just realised that the example I attached isn't a very good one and the PDF I used to test the change against is not able to be freely distributed.
The patch still applies okay. Is there anyone who would be able to apply this patch?

> The current implementation for setting the appearance of content that is added to a multiline text box is incorrect in a number of ways:
> * Doesn't position the start of the text in the correct location
> * Incorrectly uses font size '0' instead of auto-sizing the font
> * Doesn't break up very long lines
> * If the font size is very large, then the next line is started too close to the previous line.
