ExtractText (out TextData ) not returning all text on the page

PdfPageBase.ExtractText(out TextData) does not return all text found on the page.

WhenI run ExtractPage()  the string contains all the text on the page and works fine; howver, what I need is the coordinates of the text because I want to map the text to the location of the pdf document.


This is the output from the plain ExtractText();

Note: missing data after with all.

The same happens with TextData, but too much data output to show here.

My output mapping from the TextData after I perform a map to text and location of the text, I get this:

And as you can see here, the information is missing and was never returned by TextData List.
This problem happens with other documents and it depends on how they were scanned and how the OCR was generated, sometimes the missing data is from the right side of the page, not the bottom as this one is.

Please help me, as this is my first project with Syncfusion.
