Hi,

thanks for this great library.

I use a programm with pdfsharp.
If I run this program from sheduled tasks, I get different layouts. By some fonts is the space between the letters bigger. If I run the program by hand, the space is ok.
I use windows server 2003.
Have anybody a idea?

Run by task

run by hand

Hi!

Maybe it's a rights problem.
Maybe the task can't read the Calibri file and uses a different font (default font) or default settings.

Try running the task with different user settings (Local System, normal user, power user, administrator).

Thanks for your answer,

I think, its not a rights problem. In all cases, I use the same user with admin rights.
The Font is calibri, but the space between the letters is different. How do you calculate the gap between the letters?

thanks fidibus.
