> Key: PDFBOX-1585
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1585
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: PDFReader, Text extraction
> Affects Versions: 1.8.1
> Environment: Ubuntu Linux 10.04
> Solaris 10
> Java 1.6.0_34
> Reporter: Sascha Szott
> Assignee: Andreas Lehmkühler

>
> URL of the problematic pdf file is http://www.redalyc.org/pdf/540/54017220.pdf
> My program tries to extract the fulltext of the given pdf file in the
> following manner:
> {code}
> String fileName = "/home/sascha/testfile.pdf" // 1
> PDDocument pdDoc = PDDocument.load(fileName, true); // 2
> PDFTextStripper text = new PDFTextStripper(); // 3
> String fullText = text.getText(pdDoc); // 4
> {code}
> The call in line 4 causes the thread to block indefinitely (runs now for more
> than two days without making any progress). The file is stored in a local
> file system (no network interaction occurs).
> jstack indicates that the thread is not deadlocked:
> {code}
