pdfbox 1.8.5 PDFParser constructor issue?
Problem with 1.8.5 PDFParser(InputStream input) constructor: Verified that
input exists, and has correct length (>50Kb) when passed into the parser
constructor. However, inspection of parser object at next statement
parser.parse() shows that pdfSource is all zeros [0,0,0,0,0.] so nothing
comes back from parser into the Holder. Pushback is also all zeros.
Note this is attempt to parse PDF documents that were created on wintel
machines, while the pdfbox is being executed on a Fedora 20 machine.
Any suggestions?

could you try
PDDocument document = PDDocument.loadNonSeq(inputStream, null);
PDTextStripper stripper = new PDFTextStripper();
String text = stripper.getText(document);
No need to work with the parser directly.
If that sill doesn't work please upload a sample PDF to a public location.

Andreas,
Updated to 1.8.12
This time, I found the inputStream contents in parser.pdfSource.in.in.buf
However, pdfSource.buf is all zeros and Pushback is all zeros. When nextObj
call is made, b.length is 16, but all zeros. One other point pdf version
returned is 1.5 Again, inputStream is confirmed to exist and is correct.
Code still fails, even though seems simple:
PDDocumentInformation metadata;
PDFTextStripper stripper;
PDDocument document = null;
PDFParser parser;
InputStream inputStream;
String text;
parser = new PDFParser(inputStream);
parser.parse();
document = parser.getPDDocument();
stripper = new PDFTextStripper();
text = stripper.getText(document);
Please advise.
Thanks & Regards,
-mark bobick

Update to a more recent version, 2.0.3 or at least to 1.8.12. If it doesn't
work either, post the relevant part of the code you are using
