SelectText should not add new line for a regular sentence

[kern.ateam]

I was using getSelectedText to extract selected text on PDF. However, it adds a line breaker \n into a long sentence which normally wraps. I would not expect the \n to be there as you normally copy-paste from a PDF reader (Adobe, Preview etc.)

Hi Jack,

Thanks for getting back to me so quick. Actually there is another bug (Cannot copy PDF content) which block me from reproducing bugs in the demo page. I’ll let you know once I am able to reproduce it.
