John Hewson commented on PDFBOX-2232:
-------------------------------------
Extracted text is not quite the same as copying to the clipboard from Acrobat.
Using Acrobat's "Save As Other..." and selecting plain text is what you want to
compare.
> Is there difference between character \n and character space(32) in pdf stream
