John Hewson commented on PDFBOX-3056:
-------------------------------------
Also in PDFStreamEngine the methods showTextString, showTextStrings,
applyTextAdjustment, and showText can be overridden to hook into various stages
of text rendering, e.g. showTextStrings is equivalent to a TJ operator.

> I'd like to experiment with writing my own text extractor that works better
> for my use case than PDFTextStripper does. Hopefully I can port some of the
> improvements to PDFTextStripper if I get something working well. I'd really
> like PDFTextStreamEngine and its constructor to have increased visibility as
> I believe that it's pretty reasonable for people to be able write their own
> PDFTextStrippers without having to reimplement showGlyph.
