[jira] [Commented] (PDFBOX-1502) Not Extracting Text from PDF Document

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1502?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13860341#comment-13860341 ]

Hi Andreas

I'm puzzled as to why this issue was closed.  It says you were unable to reproduce the fault Deepak described - does this mean that you were able to extract the tokens "C23445", "Mimecast", "Fred" and "Box" from the *edited* version of the PDF (Renewal_Advice_Edited.pdf)?
If so, that's fantastic - please advise how you did it as we have no luck (our current version of PDFBox is 1.8.2).

Thanks so much.

- Chris

> PDDocument  document = PDDocument.load(Inputstream);
> PDFTextStripper stripper = new PDFTextStripper();
> stripper.getText(document)   is not returning some text content in the attached PDF Document . It is just returning the form fields but the values are empty .  The bug is reproducible both in 1.8.0-Snapshot and 1.7.1 codebase.
