java.lang.Object

com.itextpdf.kernel.pdf.canvas.parser.listener.GlyphEventListener

com.itextpdf.kernel.pdf.canvas.parser.listener.GlyphTextEventListener

All Implemented Interfaces:

IEventListener, ITextExtractionStrategy

 public class GlyphTextEventListener extends GlyphEventListener implements ITextExtractionStrategy 
      

This class expands each TextRenderInfo for EventType.RENDER_TEXT event types into multiple TextRenderInfo instances for each glyph occurred. The only difference from GlyphEventListener is that this class conveniently implements ITextExtractionStrategy and can therefore used as a strategy on its own.
