Description

I'm the maintainer of openhtmltopdf which is a fork of flying saucer that uses pdf box 2 instead of itext.

I'm having a blocking issue where there seems to be no way to implement text justification using pdf box. So if I ask very nicely I thought a pdf box maintainer could add the text spacing and space spacing operator to the content stream class.

Thankyou.
