[iText-questions] how can i get the font of a string using iText?

[greenhat]

I'm able to get strings using a TextExtractionStrategy (specifically I'm
using a modified LocationTextExtraction Strategy so that I can pull coords
too). However I can't see how to get the font (and font size) for strings
or chars or TextChunks. Is there something else that I'm supposed to use to
get that info?

When modifying the strategy, try to also add code which collects the
formating information from the TextRenderInfo.
