Stefan Neufeind updated NUTCH-290:
----------------------------------

    Attachment: NUTCH-290-canExtractContent.patch

This patch adds a check to first see if text-extraction is allowed - and only 
in that case try to extract text (prevents the above mentioned exception and a 
parse-fail).

Note: The line

  ((PDStandardEncryption) encDict).setCanExtractContent(true);

is imho up to discussion. It only sets a bit on "encrypted" documents. Since 
I've read in several places that many people seem to be setting this to "false" 
for no good reason, I believe we don't really "brake encryption" with this line 
- and as such should try to index as much data as possible.
Does anybody have "problems" with this line? If yes, maybe it could be a 
config-option that's false by default?
