Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 25733
PDF text output could be more comprehensive
Last modified: 2007-10-23 15:04:31 UTC
In PDF one can output a line using a delta offset between different glyphs; currently the sequence we use to out put three consecutive glyphs not directly adjacent is xxx 0 Td /F1 Tf <01> Tj yyy 0 Td <02> Tj zzz 0 Td <03 > Tj If i knew the original glyph widths i could use the more comprehensive form xxx 0 Td /f1 Tf [ <01> yy <02> zz <03> ] TJ where the numbers are delta values in width from the glyph width (the feature originally was invented for kerning). Text documents exported to PDF would be smaller this way; for this to work the SalLayout would need to output the advance widths (as it currently does) as well as the original glyph advance widths.
