[jira] [Commented] (TIKA-1753) Improper word concatenation when extracting pdf

["Ben McCann (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1753?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14907469#comment-14907469 ] 

Ben McCann commented on TIKA-1753:
----------------------------------

It looks like Tika uses pdfbox for this. I'm not sure if there's some better pdfbox configuration we can use or if there's just a bug in pdfbox that needs to be fixed
