> This happens when a text in a big font is followed by at least two lines of text in a smaller font: the last word of the first line is merged with the first word of the second line.
> On the attached PDF, the extracted text is :
> {noformat}
> (...) some text awith smaller font (...){noformat}
> instead of:
>  
> {noformat}
> (...) some text with a smaller font (...)
> {noformat}
> I often encounter this kind of problem on invoices, where the company address (small text at the top right) is next to the company name & logo (big centered text at the top).
