For some reason your answer didn't arrive to my e-mail account although other
e-mails from [email protected] arrive ok :s .
To get a perfect bounding box for the cyan rectangle, the only thing one
could do would be to evaluate the content stream in the charproc:
We will ignore the issue by now, but in case we decide to implement a solution in the
future... maybe we can just create a "mock" document with the content stream,
render it with PDFImageWriter.writeImage and then find the bounding box in the resulting
image?
Yeah, but how find it? There is some code in PDFDebugger in the trunk
(Type3Font.java) that does create a mock document. But it's just an
image. One would have to look at black pixels. What if (just in theory)
the font is white? What might be tried is to process only the path
commands and see what happens. But there's also the problem of some
fonts that use tiny images.
I'll do something re: the example, i.e. add a comment that
charProc.getGlyphBBox() is sometimes unreliable, and certainly not as
good as the individual glyph bounds on vector fonts. And add some code
to compensate for a glyph bbox that is larger than the font bbox.

Asunto: Box issue with type3 font
Hello. I'm using DrawPrintTextLocations.java (from
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/pdfbox/trunk/examples/src/main/java/org/apache/pdfbox/examples/util/DrawPrintTextLocations.java)
to find the boxes for a character in the following pdf (a simplified version of
a real life pdf):
http://wikisend.com/download/727732/boxissue_type3_font.pdf
but none of the boxes matches the printed character (see near the bottom of the
page).
This is the output that I get:
http://wikisend.com/download/129910/boxissue_type3_font-marked-1.png
I have noticed that some values in the font have negative values... so I don't
know if the file (or font) is corrupted or there is an issue in pdfbox (or in
DrawPrintTextLocations). How can I get a tightly enclosing box for the
character?
