Hi Vamsi, 

 

Thank you for your patience. 

 

We have checked the reported issue with our test document on our end. The reported alignment issue may occurs due to that replaced font and its behaviour. Every font has differ styles and render behaviour. We suspect that same for replacing the TrueType font with standard courier font. Meanwhile, we are requesting you to share the input pdf document which you are facing this alignment issue to analyse on this and it will be helpful for us to analyse and assist you further on this.
