- Method Detail
  - getUnicode
```
public String getUnicode()
```
    Return the string of characters stored in this object. The length can be different than the CharacterCodes length e.g. if ligatures are used ("fi", "fl", "ffl") where one glyph represents several unicode characters.
    
    Returns:
    The string on the screen.
  - getCharacterCodes
```
public int[] getCharacterCodes()
```
    Return the internal PDF character codes of the glyphs in this text.
    
    Returns:
    an array of internal PDF character codes
  - getTextMatrix
```
public Matrix getTextMatrix()
```
    The matrix containing the starting text position and scaling. Despite the name, it is not the text matrix set by the "Tm" operator, it is really the effective text rendering matrix (which is dependent on the current transformation matrix (set by the "cm" operator), the text matrix (set by the "Tm" operator), the font size (set by the "Tf" operator) and the page cropbox).
    
    Returns:
    The Matrix containing the starting text position
  - getDir
```
public float getDir()
```
    Return the direction/orientation of the string in this object based on its text matrix.
    
    Returns:
    The direction of the text (0, 90, 180, or 270)
  - getX
```
public float getX()
```
    This will get the page rotation adjusted x position of the character. This is adjusted based on page rotation so that the upper left is 0,0.
    
    Returns:
    The x coordinate of the character.
  - getXDirAdj
```
public float getXDirAdj()
```
    This will get the text direction adjusted x position of the character. This is adjusted based on text direction so that the first character in that direction is in the upper left at 0,0.
    
    Returns:
    The x coordinate of the text.
  - getY
```
public float getY()
```
    This will get the y position of the text, adjusted so that 0,0 is upper left and it is adjusted based on the page rotation.
    
    Returns:
    The adjusted y coordinate of the character.
  - getYDirAdj
```
public float getYDirAdj()
```
    This will get the y position of the text, adjusted so that 0,0 is upper left and it is adjusted based on the text direction.
    
    Returns:
    The adjusted y coordinate of the character.
  - getWidth
```
public float getWidth()
```
    This will get the width of the string when page rotation adjusted coordinates are used.
    
    Returns:
    The width of the text in display units.
  - getWidthDirAdj
```
public float getWidthDirAdj()
```
    This will get the width of the string when text direction adjusted coordinates are used.
    
    Returns:
    The width of the text in display units.
  - getHeight
```
public float getHeight()
```
    This will get the maximum height of all characters in this string.
    
    Returns:
    The maximum height of all characters in this string.
  - getHeightDir
```
public float getHeightDir()
```
    This will get the maximum height of all characters in this string.
    
    Returns:
    The maximum height of all characters in this string.
  - getFontSize
```
public float getFontSize()
```
    This will get the font size that has been set with the "Tf" operator (Set text font and size). When the text is rendered, it may appear bigger or smaller depending on the current transformation matrix (set by the "cm" operator) and the text matrix (set by the "Tm" operator).
    
    Returns:
    The font size.
  - getFontSizeInPt
```
public float getFontSizeInPt()
```
    This will get the font size in pt. To get this size we have to multiply the font size from getFontSize() with the text matrix (set by the "Tm" operator) horizontal scaling factor and truncate the result to integer. The actual rendering may appear bigger or smaller depending on the current transformation matrix (set by the "cm" operator). To get the size in rendering, use getXScale().
    
    Returns:
    The font size in pt.
  - getFont
```
public PDFont getFont()
```
    This will get the font for the text being drawn.
    
    Returns:
    The font size.
  - getWidthOfSpace
```
public float getWidthOfSpace()
```
    This will get the width of a space character. This is useful for some algorithms such as the text stripper, that need to know the width of a space character.
    
    Returns:
    The width of a space character.
  - getXScale
```
public float getXScale()
```
    This will get the X scaling factor. This is dependent on the current transformation matrix (set by the "cm" operator), the text matrix (set by the "Tm" operator) and the font size (set by the "Tf" operator).
    
    Returns:
    The X scaling factor.
  - getYScale
```
public float getYScale()
```
    This will get the Y scaling factor. This is dependent on the current transformation matrix (set by the "cm" operator), the text matrix (set by the "Tm" operator) and the font size (set by the "Tf" operator).
    
    Returns:
    The Y scaling factor.
  - getIndividualWidths
```
public float[] getIndividualWidths()
```
    Get the widths of each individual character.
    
    Returns:
    An array that has the same length as the CharacterCodes array.
  - contains
```
public boolean contains(TextPosition tp2)
```
    Determine if this TextPosition logically contains another (i.e. they overlap and should be rendered on top of each other).
    
    Parameters:
    tp2 - The other TestPosition to compare against
    
    Returns:
    True if tp2 is contained in the bounding box of this text.
  - mergeDiacritic
```
public void mergeDiacritic(TextPosition diacritic)
```
    Merge a single character TextPosition into the current object. This is to be used only for cases where we have a diacritic that overlaps an existing TextPosition. In a graphical display, we could overlay them, but for text extraction we need to merge them. Use the contains() method to test if two objects overlap.
    
    Parameters:
    diacritic - TextPosition to merge into the current TextPosition.
  - isDiacritic
```
public boolean isDiacritic()
```
    Returns:
    True if the current character is a diacritic char.
  - toString
```
public String toString()
```
    Show the string data for this text position.
    
    Overrides:
    
    toString in class Object
    
    Returns:
    A human readable form of this object.
