I am trying to setup a very simple Java Test to learn how to use pdfBox. I found a few examples on the mailing lists that illustrate how to use the PDFTextStripper class.
For my project, I have found a few PDF Documents that generate a Null Pointer Exception when invoking the getText() method of a PDFTextStripper Instance. I am not having any luck , however, in finding any email topics that might explain reasons for this or that might lead to work around solution. For 30 PDFs that I have, only 1 of them seems to cause the problem. The other 29 PDFs seem to work just fine. I wish that I could attach an example of the PDF, however it contains proprietary information that I am not allowed to share. That really complicates matters because no one else can take a look at the Document to provide an alternate means to parse the Text. Any suggestions or ideas would be very appreciated.
