    Hi aretak62561303,

    Are you finding this output in all of the PDF files that you convert? How were the PDFs created? Did they start life as scanned documents? Knowing how the PDFs were created can help us understand why they convert the way they do.

    That said, the quality of the conversion depends quite a bit on the quality of the PDF file.

    Best,

    Sara
