    Description

      User reported about weird clipping which occurs with the example project when printed to PDF.

      Steps to reproduce:

      1.Run the example project with "font.setKerning(False)"

      2.Print to PDF printer(for example Bullzip)

      When kerning is turned off the first line can be clipped at the end with mixed results and when kerning is turned on the results look better(please see the attachments).

      When printed to paper there was no clipping.
