> Extracted text from some PDF files includes some strings with repeated (doubled) characters.
> To reproduce the problem, download attached PDF file and run the following command:
> {code:java}
> java -jar ./tika-app-1.25.jar -T WSHP-PRC025F-EN_07132019.pdf | egrep '(.)\1(.)\2'
> {code}
> The bad strings all seem to be headings, so perhaps something in the font or other style features are causing the problem.
> First detected in version 1.19, retested with 1.25. Did not test earlier versions.
