Timo Boehme commented on PDFBOX-1572:
-------------------------------------

To my knowledge there is no planning of adding text extraction using OCR to 
PDFBox. That is more an option for an OCR engine to read/write PDF. In your 
case the problem is not the missing OCR but the OCR which was used to create 
your PDF produced wrong text content which is parsed by PDFBox. The only thing 
PDFBox could do is to try to correct typical OCR errors - however again this is 
not the field for PDFBox but for another specialized filter.
