I have been parsing a PDF and I have an issue with the text that is returned
from the PdfTextExtractor.getTextFromPage method. The reason I'm using this
version because of an exception that I am getting with the 5.1.3 version.
However when I'm getting the text from the page(s) I have noticed that the
words are running together e.g "iTextParseError" instead of "iText Parse
Error". I made the change below in the TextRendererInfo.java and that
resolved the text issues without a space. Finally, the PDF I'm parsing is
duplicating lines of text, I confirmed that the text only appears once on
the page in the PDF. E.g. "iText Parse Error\niText Parse Error".
public String getText(){
return (text == null) ? " " : (text.length() == 0) ? " " : text;
}
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String
index out of range: 0
at java.lang.String.charAt(String.java:686)
