Area argument doesn't function properly #127
Description
Please specify whether your issue is about:
- [ x] a possible bug
- a question about package functionality
- a suggested code or documentation change, improvement to the code, or feature request
Expected behavior: when specifying the area, in some pdfs, it will not respect the actual boundaries given and somehow include text from other portions of the table. I believe it has something to do with tables that go vertically down.
If you are reporting (1) a bug or (2) a question about code, please supply:
- ensure that you can install and successfully load rJava
- a fully reproducible example using a publicly available dataset (or provide your data)
- if an error is occurring, include the output of
traceback()run immediately after the error occurs - the output of
sessionInfo()
Put your code here:
## rJava loads successfully
# install.packages("rJava")
library("rJava")
## load package
library("tabulizer")
## code goes here

pagess <- list(3)
