Report printed single record to multiple lines -- line wrap --

Hello,

I have a PDF report (that is just an image of a scanned printed report) that has records like the ones shown below.  Some lines wrap across more than one line, and I would like to capture the information in a single line in the text file output instead of what seems to be the default--one line in input goes to one line in the output text file.  In other words, I would like the "01234" value in line 2 of the example below to appear at the end of the first line of the output in the text file.  I am on macOS 14 (Sonoma) and I am using ABBYY FineReader PDF--Version 15.2.14 (Build 1093333; Part # 1418.21).  I am sure there is a setting somewhere I can use to do this, but I can't seem to figure it out.  The two lines are currently captured using one single Drawn Text Area that covers both lines.

Thanks for your help!!

============SAMPLE INPUT BELOW======

12345 00000 ACME BRICK CO 171234    22123456 654321    987654    3,300.00    .00    .00
                                                       01234

<Other random information I am capturing that is separate from the record above as I want>

23456 00000 A COMPANY INC   172468    22135790 765432    876543       400.00    .00    .00
                                                       12340

etc.

    Hello,

    The "request" created is ridiculous.  You do not need access to my sensitive information to answer the question.
