Enum CharType 

pub enum CharType {
    Normal,
    Generated,
    NotUnicode,
    Hyphen,
    Piece,
    ActualText,
}

Where a character came from, which decides how the rest of the pipeline treats it.

The distinction that matters most: a space written in the content stream is Normal, not Generated. “Generated” means the extractor invented the character because the geometry implied one — an inter-word gap, an inter-object gap, or a line break’s \r\n.

Variants

Normal

A character the font decoded from the content stream.

Generated

A space or line break the extractor invented from the geometry.

NotUnicode

A character code the font could not map to Unicode; its unicode is the raw character code.

Hyphen

The soft hyphen at a line break.

Its unicode is forced to 0x0002, while TextPage::search_text carries U+00AD at the same position — the one place the character stream and the search-facing text provably disagree.

Piece

One piece of a character that normalization split into several.

ActualText

A character synthesized from a marked-content /ActualText string rather than from any glyph.
