hubob Posted March 21, 2019 Posted March 21, 2019 When importing PDF files into AD 1.7.07 the bounding boxes of text objects are not as neatly adjusted to the text field as they used to be in AD 1.6. Would be great if this could be addressed in a future update, thanks!
Staff Sean P Posted March 22, 2019 Staff Posted March 22, 2019 Hi hubob, Could you attach a copy of some of the offending PDF files please?
hubob Posted March 22, 2019 Author Posted March 22, 2019 This seems to happen with every file I have tried. For instance, please look at the bounding box of the text item upon importing the attached pdf into 1.6 versus any 1.7 version. Thanks! Text example
hubob Posted March 28, 2019 Author Posted March 28, 2019 This is just to confirm that the problem persists with 1.7.0.8. Thanks!
Dave Harris Posted April 12, 2019 Posted April 12, 2019 They are made larger deliberately to avoid the unwanted line wrapping that can happen if they are too small. Why is it a problem?
hubob Posted April 15, 2019 Author Posted April 15, 2019 I preferred the tight bounding boxes since they made it easier to align separate text boxes upon import.
hubob Posted May 25, 2019 Author Posted May 25, 2019 Has it been decided to leave v1.7 with the larger bounding boxes? I realize this might not be a major issue for most, but for my workflow (relying a lot on pdf imports) this is a major setback I'm afraid, wanting me to revert to 1.6. Otherwise, would it be possible to create a command to make bounding boxes fit snug? Thank you!
