Jon Wu commented on PDFBOX-1871:
--------------------------------

I tried PageDrawer modifications only and it looks pretty spot on with just 
that change in the few tests I tried. There's no problem translating by a 
double right? I noticed that this change made some of my tested files appear 
blurrier but I'm assuming that's a coincidence and stuff like hinting happens 
at the very end so there's no reason translation has to be an int right?

> PDFBox seems to be off by a little bit vertically when you rasterize a PDF. 
> This is in comparison to both Adobe's PDF library and many other PDF viewers 
> such as Chrome's and the one in OS X.
> I've attached an example PDF where there's some text with a green rectangle 
> around it. The rectangle is has about 2x as much space above it compared to 
> below it, but in PDFBox's raster, the rectangle is closer to the top than is 
> is to the bottom.
> This is obvious at 300 dpi but at 96 dpi it's hard to tell for sure. 
> Anecdotally, I've noticed that when rendering text at about 74 dpi, PDFBox 
> seems to be off by about 1px.
> I've attached both a PDFBox raster and one made with Adobe's PDF library for 
> comparison.
> java -jar pdfbox-app-1.8.3.jar PDFToImage -imageType PNG -resolution 300
