Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-3067:
-----------------------------------------
I got this with ExtractText for the file singlecharacters.pdf:
{code}
-200,000.00
-200,000.00
{code}
Is that what you meant?
> Text strings being returned as single characters, regression from version 1.8

> PrintTextLocations writestring() is returning individual characters on this
> file, rather than a complete string. Was returning strings with '-200,000'
> in version 1.8
> Also note that textposition.getWidthOfSpace() is getting a negative value
> (-4.464) for each character. Don't know if that is symptom or a cause.
