> Hi Devs,
> I've noticed that the angle units are not consistent throughout pdfbox. For instance, org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDPage.setRotation() needs a angle in degrees while org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.edit.PDPageContentStream.setTextRotation() needs an angle in radians...
> The javadoc does not specify which units are taken as arguments.
> It would save devs a bit of time to know that all angles are to be provided in degrees or radians.
> Thanks and keep up the good work !!
