PDF Text Editing Issue – All Sentences Imported as Separate Text Boxes

English
#1

Hello,
I am using LibreOffice Draw to edit PDF files. However, when I open a PDF, the text appears in multiple separate text boxes instead of continuous paragraphs. This makes it very difficult to edit the document.

I would like to edit PDF text in the same way as in Adobe Acrobat Pro DC, where the text imports as a single editable paragraph or text flow.

Is there any setting, extension, or planned feature that allows PDF text to be imported as one continuous text block instead of many individual text frames?

Thank you for your support.

@bantoniof What is the purpose of quoting a question without commenting it? And in an Answer which does not provide a solution!

You could at least have mentioned this is a duplicate question.

And in the case of this duplicity of the question

Where is the solution going to be?
