I faced an issue with textAbsorber.getExtractionOptions().setFormattingMode(TextExtractionOptions.TextFormattingMode.<X>); with the Raw option it formats N columns in a PDF as I want (not by physical position but as you read it - column by column) but tables are completely unreadable - each cell starts from a new line. But with the option e.g. Pure it’s opposite - tables are formatted well but columns are shown by physical positions.

I’m using aspose-pdf Java 23.6
How to force the Aspose lib to detect it automatically (assuming that a PDF document can contain multiple columns and tables simultaneously)?
