Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added support for retrieving glyph ascent and descent metrics from Type 3 font character procedures.
    • Exposed parsed vertical font metrics for improved font measurement and rendering behavior.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved handling of unavailable or unreadable character procedures by returning unavailable metric values instead of misleading zero values.
    • Preserved existing error logging when character procedure parsing fails.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds nullable ascent and descent state to Type 3 character procedure parsing. PDType3Font now exposes these metrics as Double values and returns null when the character procedure is unavailable or parsing fails.

Changes

Type 3 glyph metrics

Layer / File(s) Summary
Parse d1 bounding-box metrics
src/main/java/org/verapdf/pd/font/type3/Type3CharProcParser.java
The parser stores ascent and descent from d1 operands, resets them for invalid input, and exposes getters.
Expose metrics from glyph programs
src/main/java/org/verapdf/pd/font/type3/PDType3Font.java
PDType3Font returns parsed ascent and descent values as Double values. It returns null when no character procedure exists or parsing raises an IOException.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to b8b4b

Type3 metric parsing can currently throw at runtime or expose incomplete ascent/descent values for valid or malformed character procedures, which can cause incorrect font metrics or processing failures. These bounded correctness issues should be fixed before merging.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Reject non-numeric ll_y and ur_y operands.

parse() checks only the final d1 token. A malformed operand such as foo can leave descent at 0, while ascent is still populated. The parser then returns successfully, so PDType3Font exposes partial metrics instead of returning its zero-on-error fallback. Validate both Y operands and reset the state before throwing IOException when either operand is invalid.

95-101: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Return Double from the metric getters.

ascent and descent can be null. The primitive return types unbox these values and throw NullPointerException. This occurs for a valid d0 character procedure because it has no bounding-box operands. It also occurs when a d1 procedure has a non-numeric Y operand.

Change both getter return types to Double. This preserves the nullable contract used by PDType3Font.

Proposed fix
-    public double getAscent() {
+    public Double getAscent() {
         return ascent;
     }

-    public double getDescent() {
+    public Double getDescent() {
         return descent;
     }
