Hi Tilman,

I am writing a new email in response to an email from Chillifactor with the
subject "PDFBox signature issues" Since I am not able to reply to that
thread/email.



We are using pdfbox 2.0.23 version, we have made no changes, no upgrades
but it suddenly stopped working. Though it is a maven project so it use to
download decencies but in pom.xml we have specified specifically it’s
version 2.0.23, so it should only download that.



Complete Description of the issue:

   1. We use pdfbox to extract the text location only of the signature
   placeholder we placed in a PDF document.
   2. Suddenly from past few days it is not returning the correct location
   of the placeholder text.
   3. What Kirsten has stated are the few use cases when I was trying to
   debug the issue.
   4. But the pattern is completely random, sometime it gives the Text
   Location correctly, sometime it doesn’t give the coordinates. When I was
   debugging I found that it doesn’t process the text correctly, sometime
   combining the two texts which has space in the PDF but it is not reading
   the space.
   5. The only strange part is it suddenly started happening.
   6. It is not specific to any document,  it is randomly happening to
   multiple documents.
   7. Though I can provide my code with a sample document having issues.



Thanks

Pragati
