John Hewson commented on TIKA-1671:
-----------------------------------
Yep, it's possible to "tag" PDFs with accessible text, but this is rarely done.
Other than that there are no newlines, much like SVG.
> Wrapped lines in PDF files not processed correctly

> Key: TIKA-1671
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1671
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: parser
> Affects Versions: 1.9
> Reporter: James Baker
> Labels: pdf, wrapping
> Attachments: Test Document.pdf
>
>
> Text that wraps over multiple lines in PDF documents is not extracted
> correctly by Tika. 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 Tika.
