             Summary: Wrapped lines in PDF files not processed correctly
                 Key: PDFBOX-2890
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-2890
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Text extraction
            Reporter: James Baker


Text that wraps over multiple lines in PDF documents is not extracted correctly by PDFBox. The expected behaviour would be for it to be extracted as a single line, but instead a line break is inserted at each wrap point.

This makes it hard, if not impossible, to reassemble text into it's intended form, as it is not known whether a line break in the extracted text is one that appeared in the document or one that was inserted by PDFBox.
