>
> The PDF and TTF parsers in Apache Tika rely more on improvements in PDFBox
> than on those in Tika, so it would make more sense for that code to reside
> inside Apache PDFBox.
> Having the code inside PDFBox would allow for tighter integration with PDFBox
> internals and avoid need to wait for an official PDFBox release before new
> features can be used inside the PDF and TTF parsers.
> To do this, I'd migrate the code PDF and TTF parser classes and related test
> cases and files from Tika to the PDFBox and FontBox components. We'd add an
> optional dependency to tika-core to these components, so people who don't use
> or need Tika wouldn't be affected.
> I'll attach a patch with the proposed changes.
