> Wrapped lines in PDF files not processed correctly
> --------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: PDFBOX-2890
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-2890
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Text extraction
> Reporter: James Baker
> Labels: wrapping
>
> Text that wraps over multiple lines in PDF documents is not extracted
> correctly by PDFBox. The expected behaviour would be for it to be extracted
> as a single line, but instead a line break is inserted at each wrap point.
> This makes it hard, if not impossible, to reassemble text into it's intended
> form, as it is not known whether a line break in the extracted text is one
> that appeared in the document or one that was inserted by PDFBox.
