I'm not sure, that's why I instructed people to reopen if new
information arises.

The main problem is that AFAIK Cuneiform does not know "font
information" that people seem to want at the time the output text is
generated. It only knows each letter, its bounding box and maybe some
other stuff. Adding document-wide font info is probably quite a lot of
work.

Font size not correct in merged sandvich PDF

Status in Linux port of Cuneiform: Invalid

Bug description:
After processing with Cuneiform for Linux 1.0.0 and hOCR to PDF converter, version 0.7.4 (should be the most current version) I get a sandvich pdf that looks nice until I select text.

See the sample 5AADFEE1-0000.* files in the attachment and the result.pdf.
The effect is shown in screen087.png

For another file (Test10pages.pdf) the effect is either worse - basically I cannot really select any more text to copy because I only can guess where to move with the mouse.

It looks like that the font size in the HTML is somehow not correct - I am not an expert, but this link might help you:
