extract text problem

[Martin Obreshkov <ma...@gmail.com>]

Hi i want to extract text from a PDF file (Book) and than to index the book
content. When i extract the text there are no new lines, tabs , etc .... How
can i extract text from pdf and keep the original formatting (mainly for new
lines and tabs).

-- 
When I raise my flashing sword, and my hand takes hold on judgment, I will
take vengeance upon mine enemies, and I will repay those who haze me. Oh,
Lord, raise me to Thy right hand and count me among Thy saints.

Hi Martin,

what version of PDFBox are you using? Did you ever try the sort-option 
of the ExtractText commandline tool?
