            Description

            There has been quite bit of chatter around this issue as well as some speculations. As it turns out the issue is related to a fix that went into ICEpdf 4.1.1, PDF-204. The bug fixed an issue where we didn't return font name that was a string. The side effect of fixing this bug was that it also activate an old code path that would load the AFM font metric file.

            The AFM file font widths where not being correctly scaled as a result and the side effect was that font spacing was about 1000 greater then is should be.
