I'm sorry. That was only the case when you use pdftotext to extract text.
My apologize.

No problem... now I understand what this /ActualText thing is about. This

    /Span << /ActualText (\376\377\000\255) >> BDC
      ( ) Tj
    EMC

means that the space is to be replaced with \376\377\000\255, and \255 is indeed 0xAD. \376\377 is 0xFEFF which is the magic number for unicode.

Hi Tilman, regarding this issue, I've found a workaround that does not
solve pdfbox problem but might help.
I've filtered my documents replacing regex '[\xAD]' that is hex for 'soft
hyphen', as that seems to be the symbol that gets included between normal
characters.
After that, texts appears to be as required.
Regards,

Francisco

Many thanks Tilman.
I'll try to find a workaround in the meantime.
Cheers,

I'll create an issue in JIRA later or tomorrow, but don't expect that
this will be fixed quickly (unless I missed something obvious). We
want
to release 2.0 before doing any "big" work on text extraction.
