setSuppressDuplicateOverlappingText sometimes removes characters that it
shouldn't

Key: PDFBOX-1155
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1155
Project: PDFBox
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Text extraction
Reporter: Michael McCandless
Priority: Minor
Attachments: 000527.pdf, dedup.diffs.txt
The duplicate detection (in PDFTextStripper.java) checks whether the
same character was placed "nearish" to where we are about to place
another and de-dups it if so; this is to catch documents that rewind
and overwrite in order to bold word(s).
But in some cases I see it removing valid characters (that were not
dups).
