When this page is extracted, ",isdefinedas" appears in the output.

Quite surprisingly, despite the underlying content stream not containing any spacing information, pdfium is able to correctly identify where to insert spaces and extracts the correct text ", is defined as"

This is what the content stream looks like "[(,i)334(sd)333.1(e)331.3('fi' ligature)334.9(n)333.1(e)331.3(da)331.3(s)]TJ"

I'm closing this until I can find a better way of minimizing the example.
