> The text stripper region seems to be shifted up from the given coordinates, causing lines below the region to be included and ones above the defined region to be included.
> ...
> PDPage page = (PDPage) allPages.get(0);
> PDFTextStripperByArea stripper = new PDFTextStripperByArea();
> Rectangle2D.Float region = new Rectangle2D.Float(x, y, width, height);
> stripper.addRegion("test region", region);
> // overlay the region with a cyan rectangle to check if I got the coordinates and dimensions right
> PDPageContentStream contentStream = new PDPageContentStream(document, page, true, true);
> contentStream.setNonStrokingColor( Color.CYAN );
> contentStream.fillRect(x, y, width, height);
> contentStream.close();
> stripper.extractRegions(page);
> String content = stripper.getTextForRegion("test region");
> ...
> document.save(...);
> ...
> The cyan rectangle overlays the desired region exactly when viewing the saved output document. On the other hand, stripper misses a couple of lines at the bottom of the rectangle and includes couple of lines above the rectangle.
