Hi, I have successfully used PDFBox ExtractText utility to process PDFs produced by a third-party. The text comes out of a multicolumn PDF in the left to right order of the columns from top to bottom.
I now have to process PDFs produced by another third-party which also produces a multicolumn PDF. This time the text comes out in an unpredictable order. I've read the FAQ https://pdfbox.apache.org/2.0/faq.html regarding "Why does the extracted text appear in the wrong sequence?" I'd like to know if there is a command line switch (or something) that I can do to get the text extracted in the right order? Can I request an CLI switch to the ExtractText utility? How to do this? Thanks, Bob Rodini
