[2nd attempt]
From my understanding, when you want to use sortbyposition in tika, you
need to have a segment like this:
...
<parser class="org.apache.tika.parser.pdf.PDFParser">
<params>
<param name="sortByPosition" type="bool">true</param>
</params>
</parser>
...
so your whole file would be like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<properties>
<parsers>
<!-- Default Parser for most things, except for 2 mime types, and
never
use the Executable Parser -->
<parser class="org.apache.tika.parser.DefaultParser">
<mime-exclude>application/pdf</mime-exclude>
</parser>
<!-- Use a different parser for PDF -->
<parser class="org.apache.tika.parser.pdf.PDFParser">
<mime>application/pdf</mime>
<params>
<param name="sortByPosition" type="bool">true</param>
</params>
</parser>
</parsers>
</properties>
I just tried this file with tika-app. The default didn't sort, using
this did sort. I added " --config=config.xml" at the command line.

Dear PDFBox Dev Team,
After searching through online
<https://stackoverflow.com/search?page=5&tab=Relevance&q=pdfbox%20order>, I
am certain that using setSortByPosition(true) would help. However, I am
struggling to get the config file right. Can you please provide any advice
on it?
Thanks so much in advance. Regards, Luke

example of pdf file and my parsing results.
Thanks so much in advance. Wish you and your team a Merry Christmas and

Dear Tika Dev Team,
Hope this email finds you well.
I have been actively using Tika for pdf file reading. One issue I found
is the parsing order. As shown in attached image, the parsing order of pdf
file is not based on position of texts.
As suggested in this github link
<https://github.com/chrismattmann/tika-python/issues/266>, I used a
customized config file (see attached), hoping to solve the issue. But this
has not worked out. If any chance, can you please review this issue, and
provide any insights or solutions?
Thanks so much in advance.
Regards,
Luke
