Maruan Sahyoun commented on TIKA-1300:
--------------------------------------
Thanks for doing such test. The good part is that for the vast majority of
files there are no exceptions.
To get some additional information I did a very quick test with 101819.pdf,
200939.pdf, 491579.pdf, 556251.pdf, 710399.pdf, 148186.pdf, 231828.pdf,
527566.pdf, 630287.pdf, 167424.pdf, 277375.pdf, 545359.pdf, 702923.pdf for
which there were exceptions in the NSP.
Results:
# 556251.pdf couldn’t be opened by Adobe Reader
# 167424.pdf, 231828.pdf, 527566.pdf, 630287.pdf, 702923.pdf, 710399.pdf,
101819.pdf, 491579.pdf needed to be repaired by Adobe Reader.
# 101819.pdf, 491579.pdf in addition a dialog box came about missing
content/issues when opened in Adobe Reader.
# 141816.pdf, 200939.pdf, 277375.pdf, 545359.pdf had no complaints in Adobe
Reader.
# 141816.pdf is decrypted and had password security applied not permitting text
extraction. The Exception in the NSP is related to not having supplied a
password. Extracting text in Adobe Reader is disabled.

> On TIKA-1298, [~tilman] recommended switching Tika's default to the
> NonSequentialParser. We added a parameter to use the NonSequentialParser in
> TIKA-1201, and there's some good discussion there about the benefits.
> Is the community in favor of switching the default now?
