Tilman Hausherr closed PDFBOX-3715.
-----------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
Ok, I'm closing this one... please reopen or create a new issue if you have
another example... from what I see here, this one works as it should.
> Text Stripper regression in 2.0
> -------------------------------
>
> Key: PDFBOX-3715
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3715
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Roman
> Attachments: WindowsPhone7.pdf_page1_qdf.pdf
>
>
> When migrated from 1.8 to 2.0, we realized that some spaces are disappeared.
> Please see attached PDF. Disappeared spaces are shown as blue boxes in it.
> Those spaces WERE present in 1.8 version.
> Our App overrides *PDFTextStripper* class, implements *writePage()* method,
> and uses *charactersByArticle* property, which is actually a list of all
> *TextPosition* objects existing for every character from document.
> Some trailing spaces are disappeared from it. In the same time, those spaces
> are present in PDF via explicit declaration. For example, these piece of
> attached PDF contains the space right after "contents" word:
> {code}
> [( the content)-7(s )-2(of t)...]TJ
> {code}
> PS
> I found that this bug occurs only when *sortExtractedTextByPosition* mode
> is set to *false*. The spaces removed from inside the text by
> *suppressDuplicateOverlappingText* feature, because there are another spaces
> with almost same coordinates in the begin of document. When sorting, those
> spaces are moved inside text, in place of removed ones. The remaining
> question is how did this work in 1.8 and if PdfBox can be enhanced by adding
> some "backward compatibility" mode so we can avoid of such regressions?
