[jira] [Commented] (PDFBOX-3872) PDFToImage conversion garbled
characters on Linux but Windows OK
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3872?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16087495#comment-16087495 ]
Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-3872:
-----------------------------------------
Could you please retry with 2.0.7 (bottom of this link:
https://repository.apache.org/content/groups/snapshots/org/apache/pdfbox/pdfbox-app/2.0.7-SNAPSHOT/ )
and also post the log messages you get?
Other possible idea: install the two fonts mentioned (Calibri and CenturyGothic).

> Components: Text extraction
> Affects Versions: 2.0.5
> Environment: Oracle Linux 3.8.13-118.14.1.el6uek.x86_64 + JRE 8 u131

> I have lots of PDF documents with CID/Identity-H encoding which convert to images just fine on a Windows 7 platform, but the conversion on Linux causes garbled text in the image.
> I have permission from Blue Chyp Ltd to share a culprit PDF publicly in the PDFBox community - the first attachment.
> Running "java -jar pdfbox-app-2.0.5.jar PDFToImage BC600_S1_P3_A708__A.PDF" on Linux gives an image with garbled text - the second attachment.
> However, running the same command on Windows 7 gives a faithful jpeg image - the third attachment.
> I used the 64 bit JRE 8 update 131 In both the Windows and Linux environments.
> I used to suffer from lots of PDF->Image conversions giving garbled text at PDFBox1.8. Upgrading to PDFBox2.0 has fixed most of these issues, except for this odd one with identity-H encoding with the Linux JRE.
