All Implemented Interfaces:: IEventListener, ITextExtractionStrategy

public class GlyphTextEventListener extends GlyphEventListener implements ITextExtractionStrategy

This class expands each TextRenderInfo for EventType.RENDER_TEXT event types into multiple TextRenderInfo instances for each glyph occurred. The only difference from GlyphEventListener is that this class conveniently implements ITextExtractionStrategy and can therefore used as a strategy on its own.
