PDFBOX-4579: avoid IndexOutOfBoundsException, as suggested by Joakim Nilsson
> IndexOutOfBoundsException when setting DefaultFontProvider in FontMapper
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: PDFBOX-4579
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4579
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: FontBox, PDModel, Text extraction
> Affects Versions: 2.0.15
> Reporter: Joakim Nilsson
> Priority: Major
> Labels: easyfix
> Original Estimate: 1h
> Remaining Estimate: 1h

> When parsing certain pdf's, I'm encountering an IndexOutOfBoundsException in WindowsFontDirFinder.java on line 106:
> {code:java}
> psFontsDir = new File(windir.substring(0, 2) + File.separator + "PSFONTS");
> {code}
> WindowsFontDirFinder is used by the statement on line 128 in FontMapperImpl.java in my case:
> {code:java}
> private static final FontProvider INSTANCE = new FileSystemFontProvider(fontCache);
> {code}
> The cause of the error is that the value of windir is "" (empty string), at least during debugging in Windows. However, I should mention that parsing of the same document also fails on ubuntu. While I don't know the exact mechanism of the failure on ubuntu, I assume it is related.
> The code checks whether windir is null before doing the substring operation, but not whether the length is in fact >2. I'm not sure why windir ends up being "" here, as the windir env var is C:\WINDOWS.
>
> A working fix for me was to change the windir null check on line 94 to:
> {code:java}
> if (windir != null && !windir.equals(""))
> {code}
