[jira] [Created] (PDFBOX-2843) widthOfSpace() appears wrong in
TextPosition
Richard Wolfgram created PDFBOX-2843:
----------------------------------------
Summary: widthOfSpace() appears wrong in TextPosition
Key: PDFBOX-2843
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-2843
Project: PDFBox
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Text extraction
Affects Versions: 2.0.0
Environment: JDK 8 on Windows 7
Reporter: Richard Wolfgram
Fix For: 1.8.6
When using the following override method of PDFTextStripper I am getting a large difference in values for TextPosition.getWidthOfSpace() between version 1.8.6 and pdfbox-2.0.0-20150611.100833-1423
@Override
protected void processTextPosition(TextPosition textPos)
{
float spaceWidth = textPos.getWidthOfSpace();
float width = textPos.getWidth();
System.out.println(textPos.getCharacter() + " - Width of Space=" + spaceWidth + " - width=" + width);
builder.append(textPos.getCharacter());
}
In 1.8.6 average character width is around 5 and space width is around 2.5
In 2.0 average character width is around 5 and space width is around 27
