  getBoundingBox() 
  
    
public   BoundingPoly   getBoundingBox ()  
   The bounding box for the block.
 The vertices are in the order of top-left, top-right, bottom-right,
 bottom-left. When a rotation of the bounding box is detected the rotation
 is represented as around the top-left corner as defined when the text is
 read in the 'natural' orientation.
 For example:
when the text is horizontal it might look like:
      0----1
      |    |
      3----2 
when it's rotated 180 degrees around the top-left corner it becomes:
      2----3
      |    |
      1----0
and the vertice order will still be (0, 1, 2, 3).
