> When default values were added for averageCharTolerance and spacingTolerance as a part of TIKA-3091, their values appear to have been inadvertently swapped.
> From PDFBox:
> {noformat}
>     private float spacingTolerance = .5f;
>     private float averageCharTolerance = .3f;
> {noformat}
> From tika 1.24.1:
> {noformat}
>     //The character width-based tolerance value used to estimate where spaces in text should be added
>     //Default taken from PDFBox.
>     private Float averageCharTolerance = 0.5f;
>     //The space width-based tolerance value used to estimate where spaces in text should be added
>     //Default taken from PDFBox.
>     private Float spacingTolerance = 0.3f;
> {noformat}
> This effective change in defaults has caused PDFParser to start adding more spaces than it did in 1.24 and earlier.
