Tail characters getting stripped off
I am working with a host of PDF reports and while I am able to maintain the layout using your class, sometimes the tail characters are getting stripped off, but the parent class i.e. PDFTextStripper works fine.
Does this have anything to do with this.setCurrentPageWidth(pageRectangle.getWidth()); ??
By the way great work with the class, made the process of extracting tables so easy.
Hi! Thank you, great to hear that the class helps you! Can you send me (here or through my email) a PDF file which doesn't work?

This is what the extracted text looks like, if you look closely few of the characters are missing from words that I have highlighted and have also highlighted the issue where the tail characters are getting stripped.
I have attached the file as well, and the page number is 51 for the above extract. Thanks
Thanks a lot, I was wondering if you could explain why were certain characters getting stripped!
You were right, it has to to with this.setCurrentPageWidth(pageRectangle.getWidth()); I'll make an update but meanwhile you can change that line to: this.setCurrentPageWidth(pageRectangle.getWidth() * 1.2); I also noticed that the space between the columns were sometimes not big enough (for instance with page 6). I'll try to fix that too.
@JonathanLink: Thanks for this class, very useful.
About Your last commit (88bfd8c): I see it's still in the 'dev' branch and hasn't been merged to 'master'. Is there any reason for that?
Also, do we have any way to set the page width externally (i.e.: call pdflayouttextstripper.setPageWidth() or something like that)? That would be very useful to decide case-by-case how to behave...
Thanks, MZ
