The document
> Strange behavior in TextPositionComparator
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: PDFBOX-1170
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1170
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Text extraction
> Affects Versions: 1.6.0, 1.7.0
> Environment: Windows
> Reporter: Sébastien Dailly
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: output.pdf
>
>
> When extracting text for the pdf (see attachement) with
> setSortByPosition(true), the output does not follow nor the visual position
> of the elements, nor the document structure.
> Here is the output of PDfTextStripper :
> 11111 333333333333333 : 222222222
> The expected output would be :
> 11111 : 222222222 333333333333333
> The string « 11111 : » is defined in only one instruction :
> [(1) -9.555729866 (1) 17.5939998627 (1) 3.5597500801 (1) 1.9403500557 (1)
> 4.1794600487 ( ) -0.1493600011 (:) -4.7775301933 ( ) 250 ] TJ
> How explain that the 3... is inserted inside ?
> (Note : the pdf has been deflated and edited for « anonymising » the text. I
> also removed a picture, wich explain the XRef error )
