Text extraction
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4904?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17149209#comment-17149209 ]

-----------------------------------------
Now I feel stupid, thanks :D
Can we add a hint to stripper.getText() or the constructor doc? That'd be helpful.

> When extracting the text from a PDF bold text seems to be out of order under some conditions.
>
> {code:java}
> try (PDDocument doc = PDDocument.load(new File("152-0130-20-B-Ö-43.pdf"))) {
> PDFTextStripper stripper = new PDFTextStripper();
> String contents = stripper.getText(doc);
> System.out.println(contents);
> }
> {code}
> See section w) - the text should be:
> _*Präqualifizierte Unternehmen* führen den Nachweis der Eignung durch den Eintrag in_
> _die Liste des Vereins für die Präqualifikation von Bauunternehmen e.V._
> _(Präqualifikationsverzeichnis). ..._
> But it actually is:
> _führen den Nachweis der Eignung durch den Eintrag in *Präqualifizierte Unternehmen*_
> _die Liste des Vereins für die Präqualifikation von Bauunternehmen e.V._
> _(Präqualifikationsverzeichnis)._
>
> I attached an example PDF.
