Missing whitespace from cells

[TobiasGx]

Apologies in advance if this is a duplicate issue.

I need to parse a PDF document where some cells contain two separate numbers. See the image below:

I used the following example code:

using (PdfDocument document = PdfDocument.Open("./document2.pdf", options))
{
    var page = ObjectExtractor.Extract(document, 1);
    var ea = new SpreadsheetExtractionAlgorithm();
    IReadOnlyList<Table> tables = ea.Extract(page); 
    var table = tables[0];
    var rows = table.Rows;
    using var streamWriter = new StreamWriter("./myjson.json");
    new JSONWriter().Write(streamWriter, table);
}

This produces the following (incorrect) result:

When I use Camelot (Python) I get the following (correct) result:

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

A working solution in .NET would be ideal. I appreciate any help.

The problem seems similar to issue 28 . Cell.cs and TextChunk.cs trims the whitespace in the GetText methods.

I've created pull request 52 which fixes this problem by removing the trim call from both methods. However, I am not certain if this change would cause problems for anyone else.
