[jira] [Commented] (TIKA-1278) Expose PDF Avg Char and Spacing Tolerance Config Params

["Tim Allison (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1278?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13995231#comment-13995231 ] 

Tim Allison commented on TIKA-1278:
-----------------------------------

[~rgauss], thank you for adding these params and making this more extensible.  Should we add default values for the new params to PDFParser.properties (parsers/src/main/resources/o/a/t/pdf/PDFParser.properties) so that they are loaded with init()?  Also, should we add other parameters to configure()?

> {{PDFParserConfig}} should allow for override of PDFBox's {{averageCharTolerance}} and {{spacingTolerance}} settings as noted by a TODO comment in {{PDF2XHTML}}.
> Additionally, {{PDF2XHTML}}'s use of {{PDFParserConfig}} should be changed slightly to allow for extension of that config class and its configuration behavior.
