Text overlapping after redacting in vertical text using Aspose.PDF for .NET

Aspose.PDF Product Family
1

When I redact the “PDF” word in the vertical text the following word overlapping with the other text. What could be the reason?

Aspose.PDF .NET 20.01 version

Input file: Text-searchable.pdf (7.9 KB)

Output file: redacted-Text-searchable.pdf (14.7 KB)

Code snippet:

Document tempDocument = new Document(sourcePath);

foreach (Page actualPage in tempDocument.Pages)
{
    TextFragmentAbsorber textFragmentAbsorber = new TextFragmentAbsorber("PDF");
    textFragmentAbsorber.TextSearchOptions.IsRegularExpressionUsed = true;
    actualPage.Accept(textFragmentAbsorber);

    TextFragmentCollection textFragmentCollection = textFragmentAbsorber.TextFragments;

    foreach (TextFragment textFragment in textFragmentCollection)
    {
        Rectangle rect = textFragment.Rectangle;
        RedactionAnnotation annot = new RedactionAnnotation(actualPage, new Rectangle(rect.LLX + 1.0, rect.LLY, rect.URX - 1.0, rect.URY))
        {
            FillColor = Aspose.Pdf.Color.Black,
        };

        actualPage.Annotations.Add(annot);
        annot.Redact();
    }
}

Thanks,

Gabor

I have worked with source files and sample code shared by you and unable to observe text overlapping. I have also shared my generated result with you for your kind reference. Can you please share your desired result with us for further investigation.OutputText-searchable.PDF (46.8 KB)

@Adnan.Ahmad,

I checked your output file and I noticed you haven’t set a license.
Could you try with a licensed Aspose.PDF? Because if I also don’t set it the problem doesn’t occur.
