Thus, you have run into one of the issues of the old iText version which meanwhile have been fixed or improved. I've tried extraction both using the LocationTextExtractionStrategy and the SimpleTextExtractionStrategy. For the example document the latter one might be preferable as the content stream (and, therefore, the output of the simple strategy) keeps related parts together while the former one is strictly top-to-bottom, left-to-right, and, therefore, intermingles unrelated parts which accidentally are positioned at the same height on the page. Even better, of course, would be creating a custom strategy which like the simple one is guided by the order of text in the content stream but has even more information at hand to properly parse the data into a meaningful dataset.
