Eric Knauel updated TIKA-1226:
------------------------------
Description:
I have a PDF document that contains a filled in form. Among the various fields
of type text and radio button there are multiple fields for digital signatures.
When I load this document into tika-app I get the following exception:
{noformat}
Caused by: java.lang.RuntimeException: Can't get signature as String, use
getSignature() instead.

The problem seems to be that PDF2XHTML seems to expect that it can call
getValue() on all PDField objects. According to the PDFBox 1.8.3 java doc this
is not true for the sub class PDSignatureField:
http://pdfbox.apache.org/docs/1.8.3/javadocs/org/apache/pdfbox/pdmodel/interactive/form/PDSignatureField.html
The java doc says that getSignature() should be called instead.
Assuming that the information inside the signature is not relevant for the
extraction process and can be discarded the following patch helps:
