Arun Rangarajan commented on PDFBOX-448:
----------------------------------------
Thanks for the pdfbox project.
I have attached a PDF on which the left and the right column contents are
merged. I am using pdfbox ver. 1.2.0 and using the command line to extract text
java org.apache.pdfbox.ExtractText
> Columns in text not extracted separately.

> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Text extraction
> Reporter: Brian Carrier
> Attachments: WBPaper00003120.pdf
>
>
> The paper that is attached to PDFBOX-80 has two columns of text, but the
> extracted text is not separated by column. Instead it combines the text in
> each column on each line.
> PDFTextStripper has a notion of columns and "articles / beads", but they are
> not being used with this file.
