Andreas Lehmkühler resolved PDFBOX-846.
---------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Fix Version/s: 1.3.0
I fixed the calculation of the space width in revision 1023338. The scaling of
the text matrix and the ctm wasn't taken into amount before which confused the
algo to calculate whether a spave has to be added or not.

> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Text extraction
> Affects Versions: 1.2.1
> Environment: Windows server, .NET
> Reporter: Mark Looi
> Assignee: Andreas Lehmkühler
> Fix For: 1.3.0

> Using Text extraction on a file like this,
> http://www.organictogo.com/pdf/catering/Menu_WA_032509.pdf, the text (in all
> CAPS) "THAI VEGGIE WRAP" is extracted as:
> "ThAI VeGGIe wRAP". However, examining the PDF, shows that it looks like
> this: "Thai V eggi e Wrap". The related text on the next lines, such as
> "Crisp red cabbage, cucumbers, carrots and lettuce with Thai" parse in just
> fine.
> We are using this code to get the text in C#:
> byte[] pdfData = myWebClient.DownloadData(pdfUrl);
> string text = string.Empty;
> ByteArrayInputStream stream = new
> ByteArrayInputStream(pdfData);
> PDDocument doc = PDDocument.load(stream);
> PDFTextStripper stripper = new PDFTextStripper();
> text = stripper.getText(doc);
> doc.close();
