Unfortunately you did not supply the code of your custom listener. Thus, it is hard to say what exactly you are doing wrong. Most likely you do not check the distance between one TextRenderInfo and the next one in the same line --- if the distance is very small (which it most likely is at the separations you indicated), the texts of those TextRenderInfos belong together and are separate in the PDF only for kerning. If the distance is big, you most likely have the end of one and the start of another word. Kausik Porel wrote > Can you provide any code snippet? You can find some code for inspiration in the iText sources (open source after all...). For very orderly content streams have a look at the SimpleTextExtractionStrategy and for the generic case at the LocationTextExtractionStrategy.
