[jira] [Comment Edited] (PDFBOX-4964) PDFDebugger Text View for Streams hides errors

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4964?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17202008#comment-17202008 ]

Yeah. Drove me nuts in the context of that referenced stack overflow question. I believed the text view at first ;)

Would it be possible to add a third view option here, an actual, unparsed plain text one, showing the plain text as is, without beautification? This after all is the PDF Debugger where one wants to be able to analyze problems...

> In the context of [this stack overflow question|https://stackoverflow.com/q/64013884/1729265] I used the PDF Debugger to inspect the second page content stream of page 6 of the document provided as example, [2-30-SL-manual-DE.pdf|http://www.autosfera.lt/images/Manuals/Nussbaum/2-30-SL-manual-DE.pdf], also attached to this issue.
> The problem that question was about is caused by an invalid literal (neither string nor number) in some *TJ* instruction array argument. This literal indeed was visible in the hex view of the PDF debugger:
> !2-30-SL-manual-DE.pdf-6-2-Hex.png!
> (See the "Tw" literals in the *TJ* arrays.)
> But in the text view it was hidden:
> !2-30-SL-manual-DE.pdf-6-2-Txt.png!
