Description
I have this problem for some PDFs. It generates a text element for each character. In other pdfs the text element is running returning the grouped texts correctly. Would anyone know how to solve it?

Research direction
The issue does not name a file, test, or reproducible PDF; start by obtaining an affected PDF and comparing its output with a PDF whose text is grouped correctly. Trace where PDF text elements are assembled, and consider the issue done when affected documents no longer produce one element per character without breaking grouped text output.
