    Description

      We are using tika to extract text from XPS files and have hit an issue where whitespace is not emitted where we would expect. See the attached example file where opening the file it visually has a large gap between "x" and "abcde1234f" but when extracted by tika it calls `characters` with "x" and then `characters` on "abcde1234f". We would expect a `ignorableWhitespace` in between those calls but we don't get one.

      I have a pull request that fixes the issue which I will submit.
