Wrong text extract from vertical textboxes in pdf files
-------------------------------------------------------
Key: PDFBOX-800
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-800
Project: PDFBox
Issue Type: Bug
Environment: Win 7, VS 2010 C#
Reporter: Sandor Dj
Priority: Critical
I was told to move this issue to the pdfbox parser, so I hope this is the right
section.
Vertical textboxes in pdf files are not extracted correctly (using the tika
library in C#).
For example if there is a vertical textbox "hello" in a pdf file (!WITHOUT!
line breaks):
H
E
L
L
O
the parser returns 5 strings, each with a single letter, even there is NO line
break after every letter.
Is there a option to avoid this problem?
