I have a pdf which fails at this https://github.com/sambitdash/PDFIO.jl/blob/eeff74cd01dd29839465bb070b63c929bacd5e16/src/PDPageElement.jl#L618 assertation.

This happens when extracting the pdfs text

Extremely small characters affect the formatting so they must be ignored. The assertion was introduced to keep a check on them. In this case a textrun as 0x200b which is zero width space character of unicode leading to assertion failure. The textruns have to be ignored rather than asserted on.
