Ali Majdzadeh Kohbanani commented on TIKA-713: ---------------------------------------------- Ahmad, Could you please explain how Complex.pdf is generated? What tool is used in order to create the file? The fonts? Any specific configuration, etc. I have tested PDFBox in order to extract text from Complex.pdf and it performs very well. By contrast, any other PDF file that I test for text extraction using PDFBox have lots of errors. I have tested creating PDF files using PDFCreator and "Save as PDF" plugin in MS-Word. In the first case, the extracted text contains only junk characters and the latter some glyphs and ligatures are extracted wrongly. I have filed a bug report for PDFBox but in order to further testing PDFBox, I would like to know more about the method used in order to create Complex.pdf. Thanks a lot. > Tika can not parse all of the persian pdf files > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: TIKA-713 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-713 > Project: Tika > Issue Type: Bug > Components: parser > Affects Versions: 0.9 > Reporter: Ahmad Ajiloo > Attachments: Complex.pdf, ebrat.pdf, Simple2.pdf, Simple3.pdf > > > Hello > I used Tika (of course in Nutch) to parse some persian pdf files. some of the > files clearly transformed to a plain text. but about some of them, output was > corrupted.
