Method Detail

getAsPartialWords

public List<Word> getAsPartialWords()

Returns:

list of Word objects. We are guaranteed that every space (internal word break) in this parsed text object will create a new word in the result of this method. We are not guaranteed that these Word objects are actually words until they have been assembled. The word following any space preserves that space in its string value, so that the assembler will not erroneously merge words that should be separate, regardless of the spacing.

getUnscaledWidth

public float getUnscaledWidth(GraphicsState gs)

Parameters:

gs - TODO

Returns:

the unscaled (i.e. in Text space) width of the text

accumulate

public void accumulate(TextAssembler p,
                       String contextName)

Description copied from interface: TextAssemblyBuffer

We pass ourselves to the assembler, which is a visitor, so that it can accumulate information on this text depending on its type. The result is calculated by a final "assembly" phase, after accumulation is done. This is because we may have non-contiguous items in a PDF text stream.

Parameters:

p - the assembler that is visiting us.

contextName - TODO

See Also:

TextAssemblyBuffer.accumulate(com.lowagie.text.pdf.parser.TextAssembler, String)

assemble

public void assemble(TextAssembler p)

Parameters:

p - we may pass ourselves to this assembler again during the final assembly process.

See Also:

TextAssemblyBuffer.assemble(com.lowagie.text.pdf.parser.TextAssembler)

getFinalText

public FinalText getFinalText(PdfReader reader,
                              int page,
                              TextAssembler assembler)

Parameters:

reader - pdfReader that knows about our document. (size, etc. available here).

page - which page are we extracting text from.

assembler - Builds result by accepting content from text components of various sorts.

Returns:
