I don't think that is a good solution, as there are many bug fixes and enhancements in the current version and you would never be able to upgrade.
The message that you are seeing "You do not have permission to extract text" is not a bug but intended functionality of PDFBox. PDFBox honors the security settings in a PDF, if you don't have permission to extract the text then PDFBox won't allow you to do it, just as Acrobat will not allow you to do it. PDFBox supports *modification* of PDF documents as well as text extraction. Ben On Fri, 3 Dec 2004, Luke Shannon wrote: > Hi Ben; > > Actually I think I did update PDFBox.
