> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Text extraction
> Environment: All
> Reporter: Sébastien Dailly
> Priority: Minor
>
> As mentioned in the mailing list, the pdfTextStriper does not allow to change
> the default textPositionComparator used for orderning the char on the page.
> Here is a patch for a setter :
> 23a24
> > import java.util.Comparator;
> 69c70,76
> < //enable the ability to set the default indent/drop thresholds
> ---
> > /**
> > * This comparator is used for sorting the char by their position on the
> > * page.
> > */
> > private Comparator<TextPosition> textPositionComparator= new
> > TextPositionComparator();
> >
> > //enable the ability to set the default indent/drop thresholds
> 550c557
> < TextPositionComparator comparator = new
> TextPositionComparator();
> ---
> > TextPositionComparator comparator =
> > getTextPositionComparator();
> 1312a1320,1338
> > /**
> > * Get the Comparator used when sortByPosition is True
> > * @return a Comparator
> > */
> > public final Comparator<TextPosition> getTextPositionComparator() {
> > return textPositionComparator;
> > }
> >
> >
> > /**
> > * Define the Comparator used when sortByPosition is True
> > * @param textPositionComparator the Comparator to use
