Pdf parsing using pypdf2

Question

While parsing a pdf file using pypdf2, it reads the hifenated words like mm-dd-yy in a newline as :

mm

-

dd

-

yy

This is my code:

import PyPDF2    
def getPDFContent(path):
    pdf = PyPDF2.PdfFileReader(file(path, "rb"))    
    content = ""
    content += pdf.getPage(0).extractText() + "\n"    
    return content

How can I overcome this and print them in the same line ?
