Dennis Adler commented on TIKA-583:
-----------------------------------
Ken, I tried replacing the 3 PDFBox 1.3.1 JARs (fontbox, jempbox, pdfbox) in my
classpath with the 1.1.0 versions from Tika 0.7. Every PDF I tested failed with
a "null" error... the old PDFbox code does not seem to work with Tika 0.8.
> Tika 0.8 line break removal is faulty (misses space when concatenating lines)
> for PDF file

> Notice that as part of the improved paragraph breaking for PDF files, the
> "header" of the document had lines catenated together without spaces in
> between, creating run-on words (e.g. "WASHINGTONDIVISION" and
> "ONESERGEYSAVCHUK"). See the original PDF for more details and compare to the
> text.
