Description

Layout from AWT Renderer differs considerably from PDF renderer:
letter spacing is different, line heights are different.

As I understand it, the AWT renderer retrieves font metrics from java.awt.Font.
The PDF renderer uses metrics files that were generated with TTFReader (from the
very same TrueType fonts).

I expect that both methods produce the same result, but they don't !?

It should be possible to use EXACTLY the same metrics info for the AWT Renderer.
