It looks like the issue could be somehow relative to the culture used to render the numbers, as I was able to fix the overlap of the 1,000,000 number by rendering it using: Code: NumberOfFrancsIncluded.ToString("N0", culture) instead of Code: NumberOfFrancsIncluded.ToString("N0") However this fix does not seem to work with the other numbers overlaping. |

Okay i got it, this looks like a bug with MigraDoc, the issue occurs when the number is rendered by a culture using spaces as thousands group separators instead of a comma (as is the case for the French culture). It looks like in this case migradoc/pdfsharp does not correctly calculate the space used by the number when positioning the next element. Setting the document's culture before rendering using the below does NOT seem to help: Code: document.Culture <- culture

I only see code fragments, so not much I can say now. Is there more than one space used as a thousands separator for numbers? An MDDDL file might help investigate what you get there. https://www.pdfsharp.net/wiki/MigraDocDDL.ashx |

Thanks for your swift reply, apparently the space separator only contains a single character. I have just uploaded the mdddl file here: https://file.io/IvC3lTZjH2J8 |

From what I understand, this situation is supposed to be handled here Code: var culture = text.Document!.EffectiveCulture; var decimalSeparator = culture.NumberFormat.NumberDecimalSeparator; var decimalSeparatorLength = decimalSeparator.Length; var groupSeparator = culture.NumberFormat.NumberGroupSeparator; var groupSeparatorLength = groupSeparator.Length; // Get the index of the decimal position the word should be aligned at. var decimalPosIndex = -1; var hasNumber = false; for (var i = 0; i < word.Length;) { var c = word[i]; // Number is always accepted before decimal position. if (char.IsNumber(c)) { hasNumber = true; i++; continue; } var restLength = word.Length - i; // Decimal Separator always determines decimal position. if (decimalSeparatorLength <= restLength && word.Substring(i, decimalSeparatorLength) == decimalSeparator) { decimalPosIndex = i; break; } // Group Separator is always accepted before decimal position. if (groupSeparatorLength <= restLength && word.Substring(i, groupSeparatorLength) == groupSeparator) { i += groupSeparator.Length; continue; } // Other characters determine decimal position, if word contains numbers by now. if (hasNumber) { decimalPosIndex = i; break; } // Otherwise other characters are accepted before decimal position. i++; } if (decimalPosIndex >= 0) word = word[..decimalPosIndex]; XUnitPt wordLength = MeasureString(word); notFitting = _currentXPosition + wordLength >= _formattingArea.X + _formattingArea.Width + Tolerance; if (!notFitting) return _formattingArea.X + tabStopPosition - wordLength; return _currentXPosition; } The document culture is indeed used to determine the space used by both decimal separators and thousands separators in the current effective culture of the document (i've ensured that it is correctly set in my case). But for some reason, something does not work. |

Okay, apparently this issue is solely about the non-breakable narrow space character https://unicode-explorer.com/c/202F For some reason, PdfSharp is struggling to render it properly no matter which font I use. As a workaround I have replaced the number group separator character for the French culture since I luckily have a culture factory allowing me to make this change in a single place, but this is something the core team may want to look into. |

I still have to look into it. First impression: Problem seems to be that NNBSP has a narrow width when being measured, but is really wide when rendered in PDF - and thus text after NNBSP may overlap with other text. |

Which fonts have you tried?Where did you get OpenSans from? Have you tried Arial from the Windows folder? I tried PDFsharp 6.2.0 Preview 1 under Windows 10. Segoe WP in Core works fine. Arial in GDI and WPF builds works fine. |

I downloaded a version of "Open Sans" and it has no NNBSP, so in the PDF I see a rectangle as a placeholder. But yes, I get the overlap. You can use the new "OnPrepareTextEvent" to replace all NNBSP by a supported character (a character included in your font). I dunno how to use this with F#. |

Thank you a lot for your continued help with this To answer your questions: I am using the version 6.2.0 preview 1 and I got the OpenSans font from the Google Font website. I am also using Linux to develop (as my production server is Unix-based). Fantastic, the F# syntax is the following one: Code: pdfDocument.RenderEvents.PrepareTextEvent.Add(fun args -> args.Text <- args.Text.Replace(" ", " ")) And this approach is indeed much better than modifying the CultureInfo object across the whole application. Apparently the rendering issue when the character is not supported by the font is not be specific to PdfSharp as I have found the following issue for another project: https://github.com/bpampuch/pdfmake/issues/2614 However the overlap seems to be specific to PdfSharp. This time since i do not have any hard requirement to use the OpenSans font I have simply switched to the Arimo font (from Google fonts) which supports this character and the issue is gone. The issue above links to a page breaking down all the fonts supporting NNBSP. However, the PrepareTextEvent will be quite a useful tool to keep in my toolbelt, thanks again! |
