//! Text post-processing for PDF extraction quality improvements.
//!
//! This module implements PDF Spec-compliant text post-processing to fix
//! common text extraction issues:
//!
//! - **Soft hyphen handling** (PDF Spec Section 14.8.2.2.3):
//!   Removes U+00AD (soft hyphen) characters at line breaks when rejoining
//!   hyphenated words across lines.
//!
//! - **Whitespace normalization**:
//!   Removes excessive spaces within words while preserving intentional spacing
//!   between words.
//!
//! - **Special character spacing**:
//!   Ensures proper spacing around Greek letters, mathematical symbols,
//!   other special characters that require boundary detection.
