[jira] [Created] (PDFBOX-1241) Better handle of missing EOF at the end of a file

Better handle of missing EOF at the end of a file
-------------------------------------------------

                 Key: PDFBOX-1241
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1241
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Parsing, Text extraction
    Affects Versions: 1.6.0
         Environment: All platforms affected
            Reporter: Ernst Eibensteiner


We came across PDF files that do not have a %%EOF at the end of the file.
This leads to the following execption:

c:\tmp> java -jar pdfbox-app-1.6.0.jar ExtractText -endPage 1 "On the Insert tab.pdf"
ExtractText failed with the following exception:
java.io.IOException: Error: Expected an integer type, actual=''
        at org.apache.pdfbox.pdfparser.BaseParser.readInt(BaseParser.java:1384)
        at org.apache.pdfbox.pdfparser.PDFParser.parseStartXref(PDFParser.java:6
63)
        at org.apache.pdfbox.pdfparser.PDFParser.parseObject(PDFParser.java:464)

        at org.apache.pdfbox.pdfparser.PDFParser.parse(PDFParser.java:184)
        at org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocument.load(PDDocument.java:1088)
        at org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocument.load(PDDocument.java:1053)
        at org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocument.load(PDDocument.java:978)
        at org.apache.pdfbox.ExtractText.startExtraction(ExtractText.java:196)
        at org.apache.pdfbox.ExtractText.main(ExtractText.java:76)
        at org.apache.pdfbox.PDFBox.main(PDFBox.java:42)

While these PDFs are non-conforming, it'd be an improvement to allow them to be read and processed.

        Summary: Better handle of missing offset at the end of a file  (was: Better handle of missing EOF at the end of a file)

You're right. I've edited this issue to handle the missing offset (changed title and text) to correspond to the call stack -> 'Expected an integer type'

[jira] [Commented] (PDFBOX-1241) Better handle of missing EOF at the end of a file

Maruan Sahyoun commented on PDFBOX-1241:
----------------------------------------

For the files you came across is only the %%EOF missing or also the offset. From my perspective these are issues which need to be dealt with separately.

    Attachment: On the Insert tab.pdf

To reproduce the behaviour I have manually removed the last two lines. (Offset and %%EOF)
