Order of th text is mixed up and finding them in wrong places:

I'm using the following code:

output_string = StringIO()
with open('/Users/udayallu/similarity_search_training/Pol_ProcHdbk1_23.pdf', 'rb') as in_file:
    parser = PDFParser(in_file)
    doc = PDFDocument(parser)
    rsrcmgr = PDFResourceManager()
    device = TextConverter(rsrcmgr, output_string, laparams=LAParams())
    interpreter = PDFPageInterpreter(rsrcmgr, device)
    for page in PDFPage.create_pages(doc):
        interpreter.process_page(page)

print(output_string.getvalue())

OS: Mac os python versions: 3.7 Below is the pdf file:
