pdfbox

I would like to extract text from a given PDF file with Apache PDFBox. I wrote this code: PDFTextStripper pdfStripper = null; PDDocument pdDoc = null; COSDocument cosDoc = null; File file = new File(filepath); PDFParser parser = new PDFParser(new FileInputStream(file)); parser.parse(); cosDoc = parser.getDocument(); pdfStripper = new PDFTextStripper(); pdDoc = new PDDocument(cosDoc); pdfStripper.setStartPage(1); pdfStripper.setEndPage(5); String parsedText = pdfStripper.getText(pdDoc); System.out.println(parsedText); However, I got the following error: Exception in thread "main" java.lang

Similar to this SO PDFBox - PDF to Image losing barcode The PDF in question: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B13zTPQR9uxscXRMWjhsZ0doa00/view?usp=sharing There is minimal text, and a medium sized QR Code. I have tried many different solutions to convert this PDF page to an image using PDFBox/ImageIO, but so far the QR Code is always missing from the result. When I use PDFBox's PDFImageWriter I get this log: ColorSpace Pattern doesn't provide a non-stroking color, using white instead! I'm thinking that pertains to the QR Code. Is this expected behavior? Can someone else confirm PDFBox cannot

I need help with adding Cyrillic value to a field using the PDFBox API . Here is what I have so far: PDDocument document = PDDocument.load(file); PDDocumentCatalog dc = document.getDocumentCatalog(); PDAcroForm acroForm = dc.getAcroForm(); PDField naziv = acroForm.getField("naziv"); naziv.setValue("Наслов"); // this part right here naziv.setValue("Naslov"); // it works like this It works perfect when my input is in Latin Alphabet. But I need to handle Cyrillic inputs as well. How can I do it? p.s. this is the exception I get: Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: U+043D ('afii10079')

Is it possible to create tagged PDF(PDF/UA) with PDFBox? It looks like PDFBox has an API for that (package org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.documentinterchange.taggedpdf ), but I can't find any tutorials or code examples. Using the code below, I generated a PDF file containing an image, and the screen reader NVDA (in my case) recognizes it and reads '... graphic Alternate Description'. However, the accessibility checker PAC 2 shows an error: 'Image object not tagged'. PDDocument doc = new PDDocument(); PDPage page = new PDPage(); doc.addPage(page); PDDocumentCatalog documentCatalog = doc

i have a pdf file(attached). My objective is to convert a pdf to an image using pdfbox AS IT IS,(same as using snipping tool in windows). The pdf has all kinds of shapes and text . i am using the following code: PDDocument doc = PDDocument.load("Hello World.pdf"); PDPage firstPage = (PDPage) doc.getDocumentCatalog().getAllPages().get(67); BufferedImage bufferedImage = firstPage.convertToImage(imageType,screenResolution); ImageIO.write(bufferedImage, "png",new File("out.png")); when i use the code, the image file gives totally wrong outputs(out.png attached) how do i make pdfbox take something

Does pdfbox provide some utility to highlight the text when I have it's co-ordinates? Bounds of the text is known. I know there are other libraries that provide the same functionality like pdfclown etc. But does pdfbox provide something like that? well i found this out. it is simple. PDDocument doc = PDDocument.load(/*path to the file*/); PDPage page = (PDPage)doc.getDocumentCatalog.getAllPages.get(i); List annots = page.getAnnotations; PDAnnotationTextMarkup markup = new PDAnnotationTextMarkup(PDAnnotationTextMarkup.Su....); markup.setRectangle(/*your PDRectangle*/); markup.setQuads(/*float

I'm trying to extract text from a PDF which is full of tables. In some cases, a column is empty. When I extract the text from the PDF, the emptys columns are skiped and replaced by a whitespace, therefore, my regulars expressions can't figure out that there was a column with no information at this spot. Image to a better understanding : We can see that the columns aren't respected in the extracted text Sample of my code that extract the text from PDF : PDFTextStripper reader = new PDFTextStripper(); reader.setSortByPosition(true); reader.setStartPage(page); reader.setEndPage(page); String st =

Is it possible to extract the visible signature (image of capture) of an signed PDF with the OSS libary PDFBox? Workflow: - list all signatures of a file - show with signatures include an visible signature - show which are valid - extract images of signatures (need to extract correct image for each signature) something in oop style like following would be awesome: PDFSignatures [] sigs = document.getPDFSignatures() sig[0].getCN() ... (Buffered)Image visibleSig = sig[0].getVisibleSignature() Found class PDSignature and how to sign a PDF, but not a solution to extract an visible signature as
