No description
Enhance PDF cross-page block stitching to move only sentence continuations and preserve remaining text on the following page. Update TTS segment planning to support strict source boundary enforcement, ensuring segments do not cross block or paragraph-title boundaries. Add new tests for both features and refactor PDF text item normalization to filter out skewed or rotated runs. |
