Description

Hey team

 

We got this report in elasticsearch ingest attachment project: https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/issues/27198

Basically when a font is not available PDFBox is throwing an exception like

2017/10/31 00:01:13.348 [WARN ] [elasticsearch[test][bulk]T#3] [FontManager] Font not found: TimesNewRomanPS-BoldMT 2017/10/31 00:01:13.413 [ERROR] [elasticsearch[test][bulk]T#3] [TrueTypeFont] An error occured when reading table cmap java.io.IOException: CMap subtype 14 not yet implemented at org.apache.fontbox.ttf.CMAPEncodingEntry.processSubtype14(CMAPEncodingEntry.java:304) at org.apache.fontbox.ttf.CMAPEncodingEntry.initSubtable(CMAPEncodingEntry.java:114) at org.apache.fontbox.ttf.CMAPTable.initData(CMAPTable.java:100) at org.apache.fontbox.ttf.TrueTypeFont.initializeTable(TrueTypeFont.java:280) at org.apache.fontbox.ttf.AbstractTTFParser.parseTables(AbstractTTFParser.java:128) at org.apache.fontbox.ttf.TTFParser.parseTables(TTFParser.java:80) at org.apache.fontbox.ttf.AbstractTTFParser.parseTTF(AbstractTTFParser.java:109) at org.apache.fontbox.ttf.TTFParser.parseTTF(TTFParser.java:25) at org.apache.fontbox.ttf.AbstractTTFParser.parseTTF(AbstractTTFParser.java:84) at org.apache.fontbox.ttf.TTFParser.parseTTF(TTFParser.java:25) at org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.PDTrueTypeFont.getTTFFont(PDTrueTypeFont.java:632) at org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.PDTrueTypeFont.getFontWidth(PDTrueTypeFont.java:673) at org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.PDSimpleFont.getFontWidth(PDSimpleFont.java:231) at org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.font.PDSimpleFont.getSpaceWidth(PDSimpleFont.java:533) at org.apache.pdfbox.util.PDFStreamEngine.processEncodedText(PDFStreamEngine.java:355) at org.apache.pdfbox.util.operator.ShowTextGlyph.process(ShowTextGlyph.java:62) at org.apache.pdfbox.util.PDFStreamEngine.processOperator(PDFStreamEngine.java:557) at org.apache.pdfbox.util.PDFStreamEngine.processSubStream(PDFStreamEngine.java:268) at org.apache.pdfbox.util.PDFStreamEngine.processSubStream(PDFStreamEngine.java:235) at org.apache.pdfbox.util.PDFStreamEngine.processStream(PDFStreamEngine.java:215) at org.apache.pdfbox.util.PDFTextStripper.processPage(PDFTextStripper.java:458) at org.apache.pdfbox.util.PDFTextStripper.processPages(PDFTextStripper.java:383) at org.apache.pdfbox.util.PDFTextStripper.writeText(PDFTextStripper.java:342) at org.apache.tika.parser.pdf.PDF2XHTML.process(PDF2XHTML.java:148) at org.apache.tika.parser.pdf.PDFParser.parse(PDFParser.java:148) at org.apache.tika.parser.CompositeParser.parse(CompositeParser.java:280) at org.apache.tika.parser.AutoDetectParser.parse(AutoDetectParser.java:120) at org.apache.tika.Tika.parseToString(Tika.java:537)

This might have been solved by PDFParser with https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3997 which is available in PDFBox 2.0.9 but Tika 1.17 is still using 2.0.8. See related issue https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3985. Unclear if that will actually fix the problem reported but FWIW upgrading to 2.0.9 of PDFBox could be useful.
