???

Is this about width or about Q ?

I can call PDBorderStyleDictionary.setWidth with 0, 1, or 2, for now, but it 
looks to me like setWidth() sets the COSObject to a float, e.g., 0.0, 1.0, 
etc., which Acrobat XI and Reader DC ignore. It should be set to an integer.

See http://aapro.net/PDF/BorderWeightTestAcrobat.pdf vs 
aapro.net/PDF/BorderWeightTest.pdf.

The BorderWeightTestAcrobat.pdf was created by opening BorderWeightTest.pdf in 
Acrobat, setting the borders, and saving.

It's a little awkward, since setWidth should really take an int argument, not a 
float to begin with. The PDF spec, to my reading, is looking for an integer 
number of points. So truly fixing it would break any applications trying to 
pass in a float. OTOH, I don't see how any such applications could be working, 
even though they'd compile. I suppose non-Adobe PDF renderers might work with 
float data.

Thanks Tilman, I thought they were public but not visible, which was disturbing 
my fragile sense of competency.
I first thought you were using Netbeans (which requires to press CTRL SPACE 
twice to see the statics sometimes) but then I saw the missing public. I'll 
create an issue later tonight or tomorrow (unless you do) to put it back in. I 
don't see a reason why this was removed.

Sigh. This must be something about Java I need to understand better. I get "The 
field PDVariableText.QUADDING_LEFT is not visible".
You're right... these are not public. That explains why google found it only 
for an older version.

PDVariableText.setQ (and various other methods) suggest seeing the "QUADDING 
constants".

Can someone please post a link? Or tell me what class to look at? I've searched, googled, 
etc., for close to a half hour. I suspect this is something that everyone "just 
knows" but I have to admit ignorance.
It's also mentioned in the PDF 32000 specification:

A code specifying the form of quadding (justification) that shall be used in 
displaying the annotation's text:
0 Left-justified
1 Centered
2 Right-justified
Default value: 0 (left-justified).

And then I enter "PDVariableText quadding" (without quotes) in google I find 
the constants that Andreas mentioned, although for an older version. If you don't get 
these, check if some plugin manipulated your browser's search results.
