Bastian Preindl updated PDFBOX-1001:
------------------------------------
Attachment: dreher.pdf
Andreas Lehmkühler asked me to upload an example PDF for the bug described. You
find it attached.
> TextPosition.getHeight() returns erroneous value for some PDFs
> --------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: PDFBOX-1001
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1001
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Text extraction
> Affects Versions: 1.4.0, 1.5.0
> Environment: Solaris, WinXP
> Reporter: Emil Wacker
> Attachments: dreher.pdf
>
>
> For a PDF that worked fine under 1.2.1 the height value returned is negative
> and the wrong value (i.e. using Math.abs() won't fix it). Other PDFs work
> fine.
> PDF Debug shows "Creator:Crystal Reports" and "Producer:PDF-XChange
> (XCPRO30.DLL v3.30.0064) (Windows 2k)"
> And when examining the 'Stream' items, the text is not what displays.
> Any suggestions on what to look for so that I can do differential analysis
> against other PDFs to see what they do/not have in common with this one?
> (It's client data so I can't post the PDF. )
> It's stopping us from moving off 1.2.1 (and later versions fix another issue
> we have of seeing question marks instead of the actual characters).
