PdfProcessing: Glyph widths for some documents are applied wrongly after import-export operation
Some documents result in glyphs with wrong widths after import-export. Widths are mixed making some of them to overlap and others to have bigger distance.

I am afraid I cannot provide you with a workaround fixing the wrong positioning of the text fragments after the font has changed. I am sorry for the inconvenience this issue might be causing you.

Martin,

Thanks for the workaround, but the problem is characters and words spacing are not adjusting automatically according to new font.

Hello Abdul,

A possible workaround could be to change the Font of the document before exporting it. You can use one of the 14 fonts from the FontsRepository or to create a new one like in the following code snippet:
FontsRepository.TryCreateFont(new FontFamily("Calibri"), out FontBase calibri);
foreach (RadFixedPage page in document.Pages)
{
	foreach (ContentElementBase content in page.Content)
	{
		if (content is TextFragment)
		{
			((TextFragment)content).Font = calibri;
		}
	}
}

Martin
