Stefan Geelen updated PDFBOX-5099:
----------------------------------
    Description: 
I have a PDF without CreateDate

Following 
{quote}PDDocumentInformation docinfo = pdDoc.getDocumentInformation();

docinfo.getCreationDate();
{quote}
throws
{quote}java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: 
2java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: 2 at 
java.lang.String.charAt(String.java:658) at 
org.apache.pdfbox.util.DateConverter.parseDate(DateConverter.java:656) at 
org.apache.pdfbox.util.DateConverter.toCalendar(DateConverter.java:724) at 
org.apache.pdfbox.util.DateConverter.toCalendar(DateConverter.java:702) at 
org.apache.pdfbox.cos.COSDictionary.getDate(COSDictionary.java:861) at 
org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocumentInformation.getCreationDate(PDDocumentInformation.java:212)
{quote}
Better should be to return null in case no createdate exists (same with 
getModificationDate I assume - not tested).

Currently there is no other way tha putting this in a  try catch to omit this 
error.

a 
{quote}docinfo.hasCreationDate();
{quote}
would also be handy (same for other properties).

Looking inside the PDF structure this is the Info:
{quote}7 0 obj
<<
/CreationDate (D:)
/Creator (Samsung Electronics)
/Producer (CloudConvert)
/ModDate (D:20210209103114Z)
/Keywords (urn:uuid:313707-D7BA577B-6584-AC90-7235-4BDFD4C6CCB8)
{quote}
 

I guess it is an illegal Date value .
