getWordBox

Get the bounding box of a word.
getWordBox([in] LONG wordHandle, [out] double *xMin, [out] double *yMin, [out] double *xMax, [out] double *yMax)
This function returns the bounding box of a word (whose handle was obtained with getWord).

The xMin, yMin, xMax, and yMax coordinates are in a coordinate space that places (0,0) at the top-left corner of the page and has 72 units per inch (same coordinate system as used by extractTextFromRect).

This function is identical to getWordBox2 except that it returns points in a top-down coordinate space.

VB:
Dim fSize As Double Dim xMin As Double, yMin As Double, xMax As Double, yMax As Double fName = pdf.getWordFontName(word) fSize = pdf.getWordFontSize(word) bold = pdf.getWordFontIsBold(word) italic = pdf.getWordFontIsItalic(word) fixedWidth = pdf.getWordFontIsFixedWidth(word) serif = pdf.getWordFontIsSerif(word) symbolic = pdf.getWordFontIsSymbolic(word) color = pdf.getWordColor(word) pdf.getWordBox(word, xMin, yMin, xMax, yMax) space = pdf.getWordSpaceAfter(word) rot = pdf.getWordRotation(word)
