Hi,

Yet another noob question :)

Is it possible to find out the rotated bounding box of a rotated PdfTextObject? By "rotated" bounding box I mean a bounding box aligned with the rotated text, i.e. that is rotated by the same angle.

Our old PDF library was able to produce such a bounding box, but I cannot figure out if it is possible with Pdfium.Net.

Best regards,
Roman

What do you mean under bounding box, the quadrilateral like this:
quadrilateral
or rectangle with coordinates (left/top) - (right/bottom) (x4, y3) - (x2,y1)

There is no easy way to get quadrilateral of rotated text object, but you can calculate it.
I can suggest the following workaround:
  1. Create clone of TextObject;
  2. Rotate it to the angle that is opposite to the angle of the source text object;
  3. Get bounding box of this text object;
  4. Rotate the bounding box to the original angle;
