PanQuanyi commented on PDFBOX-1425:
-----------------------------------
I also meet the problem, I write a Class BookStripper extends PDFTextStripper
the BookStripper must be put in package "org.apache.pdfbox.util" in order to
override the following method
the
startPage(...),endPage(...),handleLineSeparation(...),isParagraphSeparation(...),processOperator(...),writePage(...).
very uncomfortable.
> Make PositionWrapper.getTextPosition public

> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Daniel Bonniot de Ruisselet
> Fix For: 1.8.0

>
> Method PositionWrapper.getTextPosition() is currently protected. The problem
> is that this limits the ability to extend/customize pdfbox.
> For instance, suppose someone wants to override
> PDFTextStripper.isParagraphSeparation(PositionWrapper position,
> PositionWrapper lastPosition, PositionWrapper lastLineStartPosition, float
> maxHeightForLine):
> This is intended, since isParagraphSeparation is 'protected'. However, in the
> subclass (which will be in a different package), it is forbidden to call
> position.getTextPosition(), which severly limits what can be done.
> Could you please make PositionWrapper.getTextPosition() public?
