Andreas Lehmkühler commented on PDFBOX-3332:
--------------------------------------------
How about removing those special cases from the object arrays and simply adding
the mappings in the constructor to the codeToName map only? That should solve
the issue without changing the behaviour of "add" and/or adding a new method.
> Apache PDFBox Form Fill TrueType text spacing issue
> ---------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: PDFBOX-3332
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3332
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: AcroForm
> Affects Versions: 2.0.1
> Environment: Mac OS X/JDK 1.8.0_65
> Reporter: Richard Brown
> Priority: Critical
> Labels: bug
> Attachments: BLANK.pdf, FillFormField-acrobat.pdf, FillFormField.pdf,
> FillFormField_iText.pdf, Main.java

>
> I'm using Apache PDFBox to fill a PDF Form. I'm using a TrueType font (not a
> default font) called 'Impact', pretty standard fare. In the template I have a
> field called "Title" that has the Impact font assigned. I use the code below
> to take that template and populate the field with a value that has several
> words in it.
> The issue is when you view the created PDF there are large spaces between the
> words. If you open the PDF in Acrobat and click on the field the text alters
> and the large spacing goes away. Editing the field in any way will
> permanently correct the issue, but I'm generating the forms to NOT be altered
> after the fact.
> I've tried the same experiment with the default fonts (Helvetica in this
> case) and the above issue doesn't exist. I can create a blank form and add a
> field and set the custom font and duplicate the issue.
> I've read that a similar issue was addressed in 2.0.0, PDFBOX-2062 but it was
> for changing font size, not a custom font.
