Sue, I *think* you can use the PDFFilter class from 1.5 (/dspace-api/src/main/java/org/dspace/app/mediafilter/PDFFilter.java)
without any problems. There are changes post-1.4.2 in the media filter regarding the ability to use 'self-named' plugins, but it doesn't look like this affects the PDFFilter. Otherwise, you should be able to get enough information from the PDFFilter in 1.5 as to how it catches and handles the OutOfMemoryExecption to port it back to 1.4.2 if necessary. G Thornton, Susan M.
