[jira] [Closed] (PDFBOX-2902) Getting bounding box of words from PDFs

["Tilman Hausherr (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-2902?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Tilman Hausherr closed PDFBOX-2902.
-----------------------------------
    Resolution: Not A Problem

Please look at the PrintTextLocations.java example in the source code download, I think this comes close to what you want, it shows with and height. However there is no "word" concept in PDF. There are just sequence of glyphs.

Howver, JIRA is not the correct place to ask "how to" questions. Such questions can be asked on the mailing list or on stackoverflow. To get support, read and understand this text:
