[jira] Commented: (PDFBOX-858) Metadata extraction broken on some PDF files

["Andreas Lehmkühler (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-858?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12966214#action_12966214 ] 

Andreas Lehmkühler commented on PDFBOX-858:
-------------------------------------------

Martijn is correct, both pdfs are encrypted and the metadata will be available after decrypting using the current trunk.

The ExtractMetadata [1] example was improved in revision 1041509. It'll try to use the document information if there isn't any metadata within the catalogue.

> On certain PDF files (examples attached), the metadata extraction seems to be broken. Preview (on Mac OS X) and Acrobat Reader is able to read the metadata, but PDFbox gives complete jibberish:

> I've tried both the version included in Tika 0.7 (1.0.0 I believe) and r1021264 from SVN.
