            Description

            We have several PDF documents which when drawn contain text that has been scaled using a width that distorts the glyph. The distortion varies from document to document. Further investigation is needed to figure out the root cause.

              The issue appear to be resolved as the underlying problem was related to the picking of a fix width and sanSarif font for font substitution. Quite a bit of work was done to update the fontManger to take into account the bit flags assigned the PDF font.
