Daan de Wit commented on TIKA-547: ---------------------------------- Can you try to extract the text using PDFBox (http://http://pdfbox.apache.org/) and see what that gives? If using plain PDFBox also gives only spaces, it is an issue with PDFBox, and not with Tika. > Can't extract PDF text > ---------------------- > > Key: TIKA-547 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-547 > Project: Tika > Issue Type: Bug > Components: parser > Affects Versions: 0.7, 0.8 > Reporter: Igor Spasic > Attachments: test.pdf > > > I have created a simply pdf by using Bullzip PDF printer (virtual Windows > printer). > Tika is not able to parse text from this PDF, it just return spaces. > I will attach test pdf after the issue is created. > command line: > java -jar c:\download\tika-app-0.8.jar -t test.pdf -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
