EvPdfTextMergingOptions Enumeration

The EvPdfTextMergingOptions TS enumeration defines the options for determining word boundaries when importing text from a PDF file. As PDF files do not store text as text editors do, these options determine how words should be reconstructed in Envision documents.

Disabled: "disabled";

No merging occurs—the imported text remains fragmented as it appears in the original PDF, with individual characters or words kept separate. This option should preserve the original look of the text layout. It is the default setting shipped in the deployment package.

Loose: "loose";

Allows more spacing variation between characters when grouping them into words. This option may potentially treat remotely positioned characters or words as a single unit.

Precise: "precise";

Uses a reference spacing model, where the space between two characters helps determine the expected position of the next character.

Tight: "tight";

Requires minimal spacing variation between characters to group them into words, leading to stricter word detection. This option may potentially treat characters or words that are closely positioned as a single unit.
