Tim Allison updated TIKA-2845:
------------------------------
Description:
On the PDFBox user list, [~lehmi] confirmed (and [~tilman] clarified) that
PDFTextStripper's {{processPages}} skips pages that lack a "Contents"
element[1]. Inline images are part of the "Contents" element and would still
be processed (e.g. in OCR).
However, there are other elements that might be on a page that does not have a
"Contents" element, such as an annotation with an embedded file.
We should override {{processPages()}} to process all pages.
