Gets the bounding box for a word in user space coordinates. To avoid the device-dependent effects of specifying objects in device space, PDF defines a device-independent coordinate system that always bears the same relationship to the current page, regardless of the output device on which printing or displaying occurs. This device-independent coordinate system is called user space. The origin of the user space(0, 0) represents the bottom-left corner of the PDF page. PDF files specify 72 points to 1 physical inch. The returned bounding box is guaranteed to encompass the word.
