Hope this helps:
public String getText( byte[] contents ) throws UnableExtractException {
String textString = "";
PDDocument pd = null;
try {
PDFTextStripper stripper = new PDFTextStripper();
pd = parseDocument(contents);
textString = stripper.getText(pd);
}
catch( Exception ie ) {
throw new UnableExtractException( ie.getMessage() );
} finally {
if (pd != null) {
try {
pd.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
}
}
}
return textString;
}
private PDDocument parseDocument( byte[] contents ) throws
java.io.IOException {
PDFParser parser = new PDFParser( getInputStream(contents) );
parser.parse();
return new PDDocument( parser.getDocument() );

> Hi there,
> We have users that are uploading certain PDF files (only happens on some) and
> when the system extracts the text, when there is a double letter word like
> 'Mississauga', it comes up as Misisauga - removes the double letter. This
> seem to only occur on some PDFs. Also, issue is not present when using the
> original Word file.
