Could you please share the sample code or application as well? Also specify your OS details.

OS: windows 10
Code sample:

var fileStream = File.Open("file.pdf", FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.Delete | FileShare.ReadWrite);
var gdExtFormat = GroupDocs.Parser.Options.FileType.FromExtension(".pdf").Format;
var gdParser = new Parser(fileStream, new GroupDocs.Parser.Options.LoadOptions(gdExtFormat));
var textReader = _gdParser.GetText(new GroupDocs.Parser.Options.TextOptions(true));
string text = textReader.ReadToEnd();

When i change TextOptions to False to use accurate mode instead of raw mode it seems to work.
var textReader = _gdParser.GetText(new GroupDocs.Parser.Options.TextOptions(false));

We are using “raw mode” due to its performance benefits.
Do you have an idea why raw mode got the text output wrong?
