No proper line break. For example: ARTICLE 1.1 should be start at new line. |

1_E5E4AE9D-2C0E-4CCF-A39D-666D45D39B16.txt |
No proper line break, no space between words. |
Code:
FileStream docStream = new FileStream(filePath, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);
PdfLoadedDocument loadedDocument = new PdfLoadedDocument(docStream);
PdfLoadedPageCollection loadedPages = loadedDocument.Pages;
foreach (PdfLoadedPage loadedPage in loadedPages)
{
docText += loadedPage.ExtractText();
}
Hi Kuan,
We were able to reproduce the issue “Line breaks are not proper in the PdfLoadedPage's ExtractText()”. We will validate the issue and update further details in two business days on April 19, 2022.

Hi Kuan,
We suggest using the ExtractText(bool IsLayout) overload method instead of the ExtractText() method. With the IsLayout parameter set to TRUE, we can extract the text in the format that is preserved in the PDF document.
We have shared the sample and the extracted text outputs for your reference which can be downloaded from the following links.

Kindly let us know if it helps.
