            Description

            If I upload the example pdf from this url: https://github.com/ralfstuckert/pdfbox-layout/blob/master/examples/lowleveltext.pdf to your online demo viewer, the pdf is rendered with missing text. In all lines with justified text, only the first word is rendered. I.e. the first three lines of the main text read:
            Lorem
            sadipscing
            tempor
            Three other viewers I tried (Adobe Acrobat Reader, evince, zathura) show the pdf rendered correctly.
            The pdf is a valid 1.4 pdf according to https://www.pdf-online.com/osa/validate.aspx

            We have observed the problem also with other pdfs generated with pdfbox-layout and viewed with ice-pdf; also in that case, only justified text is missing.

                This is a very similar issue to PDF-865. The sample is actually quite helpful as we have only one other test file that exhibits this issue.

                Thank you for the fix! I'm just wondering, should this be already available in the 6.3.1-SNAPSHOT-SNAPSHOT version? Both the online demo viewer and the one we downloaded still exhibits the bug, see screenshot. Is the bugfix available to the public already?

                The examples haven not been updated. You'll need to go to our svn repo and build the jars. Should have an official release by end of month.
