Can you add a parameter of distance to group words.

Hi Team,

Is there is any parameter of char_margin to group two word if they are really close.

Example: If have Folio No in pdf so in extractWord() it is giving as two words "Folio" and "No" separately but I want it as single word "Folio No".

TIA.

You actually have all the information to add this type of logic yourself, as a programmer:

• if two subsequent words with the same block number and the same line number have bboxes where bbox1.x1 is close to bbox2.x0, then join them.
• you can make this decision also dependent on the bbox heights - which is related to the line height
• you can experiment with the text extraction flag bit fitz.TEXT_INHIBIT_SPACES. Set it to off to prevent that MuPDF adds extra spaces when bboxes of two characters in sequence are not adjacent.
