The colored word is read into two words

[Godlikemandyy]

After reading the PDF file, one blue word has changed into two identical words，eg： "任何单位和个人" become "任任何何单单位为和和个个人人" What caused this and how to fix it!

Thank you

Hi @Godlikemandyy, and thanks for your interest in this library. Without having access to the original PDF, or the code you used, it is difficult to answer your question. But I would suggest the following:

• Examine the stroking_color and non_stroking_color of the objects in page.chars
• Determine the values used for the blue characters
• Use the following code to extract just the non-blue text:

print(page.filter(lambda obj: not (
  obj["object_type"] == "char"
  and obj["non_stroking_color"] == "..."  # Replace "..." with the value determined in the previous step
).extract_text())

Because this is a specific-PDF troubleshooting question, rather than a bug or feature request, I'm closing this issue. Feel free to continue the discussion here, or through a new troubleshooting Discussion: https://github.com/jsvine/pdfplumber/discussions/categories/get-help-with-specific-pdfs
