John Hewson updated PDFBOX-800:
-------------------------------
Description:
Vertical textboxes in pdf files are not extracted correctly (using the tika
library in C#).
For example if there is a vertical textbox "hello" in a pdf file (!WITHOUT!
line breaks):
H
E
L
L
O
the parser returns 5 strings, each with a single letter, even there is NO line
break after every letter.
Is there a option to avoid this problem?

I was told to move this issue to the pdfbox parser, so I hope this is the right
