Tilman Hausherr commented on TIKA-1300:
---------------------------------------
I had a look at most of the files. This resulted in PDFBOX-2163 (7 files, will
be fixed in 1.8 this Weekend) and PDFBOX-2167 (1 file). The rest is really
broken, some of them so bad that even Acrobat can't open them. Many have
incorrect xref tables. One has a broken LZW stream so that even Acrobat
displays just a part of the text. One I believe I've seen before (I think
brought up by William Palmer), it has a PDF stream that had two threads writing
on it at the same time.
Yes, TIKA-1205 should be done.
> Switch default PDFBox parser to NonSequentialParser

> 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?
