+## Eliminating extra spaces
+
+PDFs come in many varieties, which makes reading them a challenge. The loader parses individual text elements and joins them together with a space by default, but
+if you are seeing excessive spaces, this may not be the desired behavior. In that case, you can override the separator with an empty string like this:
+
+```typescript
+import { PDFLoader } from "langchain/document_loaders/fs/pdf";
+
+const loader = new PDFLoader("src/document_loaders/example_data/example.pdf", {
+  parsedItemSeparator: "",
+});
+
+const docs = await loader.load();
+```
