## Class PDFGlyphVector

- java.lang.Object
- - org.faceless.pdf2.PDFGlyphVector

-     public abstract class PDFGlyphVector
      extends Object

  A PDFGlyphVector is a sequence of glyphs in a particular font. It's a very low-level class and most likely the `LayoutBox` is a better option, but if there's a requirement to get text onto the page as fast as possible without any layout then this class can be used. A quick example:

       PDFStyle style = ...
       PDFGlyphVector vector = style.createGlyphVector("Hello World", Locale.getDefault());
       canvas.drawGlyphVector(vector, x, y);

  Since:
    2.11.22

    `PDFStyle.createGlyphVector(java.lang.String, java.util.Locale)`, `PDFCanvas.drawGlyphVector(org.faceless.pdf2.PDFGlyphVector, float, float)`
