the new parser is - unfortunately - still in it's early state and not in any way helpful. I wanted to complete the SimpleParser, which takes the tokens from the PDF Lexer and creates the COS level objects this week. All this is still in preparation for the ConformingParser.
WRT 1.7 I agree with Timo that the enhancements made so far do validate a new release esp the new NonSequentialParser Timo created has already proven to solve a number of issues raised. Maybe this could be the default for the time being? regards Maruan Am 14.05.2012 um 09:54 schrieb Timo Boehme: > Hi, > > Am 13.05.2012 10:24, schrieb Andreas Lehmkuehler: >> Am 07.05.2012 10:50, schrieb Timo Boehme: > ... >>> In my opinion there are already a number of improvements in current trunk >>> compared to 1.6 and there is no reason to not release another 1.8 before >>> PDFBOX-1000 is really ready.
