Andreas Lehmkühler commented on PDFBOX-1407:
--------------------------------------------
Lau sent me the pdf in question via private mail and I can confirm that my
first guess was correct. Using the non-sequential parser solves the issue.
@Lau
You should ask the TIKA-people to implement some sort of switch so that one can
choose the parser.
