Dirk Groeneveld commented on PDFBOX-3203:
-----------------------------------------
I read up a bit on what a text matrix is. Let me see if I understand this
correctly: Whatever tool they used to create this PDF, they set an enormous
font size, and then use text matrix to scale it down to something that fits on
a page. In the content stream, it comes out the other way, where the font size
they set is 17.933, and the text matrix scales it up to 321.
As a consumer of the PDF, I don't care about how they created it and how it's
scaled. To get the font size in points in the final output, I have to use
fontSize, not fontSizePt. Correct?

> Non-integer font sizes are apparently reported by PDFBox scaled by a factor
> of 10. For example, a font size of "32.1" comes out as 321.
