The PDFTextProperties structure is used as the type of the following properties:

This structure contains font information of the text such as its font width, height and index, text position(represent whether the text item is the last item in a word or a line) and the text color.

This example reads the objects of a PDF file and creates a file on disk containing the text of the file. For an example that draws the PDF to an image, refer to PDFObject.
