Andreas Lehmkühler commented on PDFBOX-2991:
--------------------------------------------
The given pdf uses different font sizes, so that it is difficut to determnine
which parts belong to the line and which not.
PDFBox assumes that
- "Orange County, CA" is on the same line than "Ben McCann"
- "[email protected]" is on the same line than "Ben McCann"
- that leads to "Orange County, CA" is on the same line than
"[email protected]"
Saying that, I don't how what a correct result may look like.
