Description

### Requested feature
1. Docling currently doesnt seem to be handling scientific notations very well. When i pass it a PDF containing scientific notations it reads the values as is with a space in between.
For example : 2^7 is read as 2 7.

This is causing issues later when this data is passed to an LLM as it does not recognize this expression to be a scientific notation.
