[jira] Commented: (NUTCH-290) parse-pdf: Garbage indexed when text-extraction not allowed

    [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-290?page=comments#action_12413780 ] 

Stefan Neufeind commented on NUTCH-290:
---------------------------------------

The plugin itself imho works fine now. Does not throw an exception anymore and if allowed outputs text correctly.
However I still get the "garbage-output" from a PDF. Could that be due to the fact that in case no extraction is allowed (empty parsing-text returned) the parser will still fallback to using the raw text to index?

What I did was deleting crawl_parse and parse_* from the segments-directory, running "nutch parse" and reindexing everything. However the raw chars in the search-output (summary) remain. :-((

> It seems that garbage (or undecoded text?) is indexed when text-extraction for a PDF is not allowed.
