Unfortunately, it won't work with a pdf containing "Hello. World" and a query equals to "o. w" (fyi it's ok in Acrobat).
I think a fix could be to add optional white spaces around group of punctuation signs which induces to not have [ ]* between consecutive punctuation signs.
It'd lead to update SPECIAL_CHARS_REG_EXP but you've to take care to the case of . and ?.

Handled the Suggested test case. Also Attaching the PDF with the test case: |
| const DIACRITICS_REG_EXP = /\p{M}+/gu; | ||
| const SPECIAL_CHARS_REG_EXP = | ||
| /([.*+?^${}()|[\]\\])|(\p{P})|(\s+)|(\p{M})|(\p{L})/gu; | ||
| /([*+^${}()|[\]\\])|((?:[.?]|\p{P})+)|(\s+)|(\p{M})|(\p{L})/gu; |

Why do you want to not capture . or ? ?
| return `[ ]*\\${p1}[ ]*`; | ||
| // Escaped metacharacters like . * + ? ... | ||
| // Allow spaces around them ONLY if the user typed spaces. | ||
| return queryHasWhitespace ? `[ ]*\\${p1}[ ]*` : `\\${p1}`; |

Why do you want to do that ?
| return `[ ]*${p2}[ ]*`; | ||
| // Punctuation: allow optional spaces ONLY if the user typed spaces. | ||
| // p2 is a *run* of punctuation; escape it as a whole. | ||
| const escapedRun = escapeForRegex(p2); |

You just have to replace the . and the ? by . and ?
| // Punctuation: allow optional spaces ONLY if the user typed spaces. | ||
| // p2 is a *run* of punctuation; escape it as a whole. | ||
| const escapedRun = escapeForRegex(p2); | ||
| return queryHasWhitespace ? `[ ]*${escapedRun}[ ]*` : `${escapedRun}`; |

Again I don't understand why you want to make a difference between hasWhitespace and !hasWhitespace.
