Nick Burch commented on TIKA-973:
---------------------------------
Patch looks promising to me, but I don't know enough about PDF so I've not been
able to give it a thorough review
Let's give it a few days before applying, to give others a chance to offer
feedback
One thing that might be good is in the unit test, to check for data from each
form in turn, so we cover more cases
> PDF form data isn't included in extracted content.

> When extracting content from PDFs, PDF form data isn't extracted.
> The following code extracts this data via PDF box, but it seems like
> something Tika should be doing.
> PDDocumentCatalog docCatalog = load.getDocumentCatalog();
> if (docCatalog != null) {
> PDAcroForm acroForm = docCatalog.getAcroForm();
> if (acroForm != null) {
> @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
> List<PDField> fields = acroForm.getFields();
> if (fields != null && fields.size() > 0) {
> documentContent.append(" ");
> for (PDField field : fields) {
> if (field.getValue()!=null) {
> documentContent.append(field.getValue());
> documentContent.append(" ");
> }
> }
> }
> }
> }
