Description

PDActionURI.getURI() function returns bad result for the first link annotation in the attached document business.pdf (this doc works fine in Acrobat Reader).
We are using PdfBox 2.0.5

//..
//Iterates by all annotations on the first page of doc, searches for first annotation of type PDAnnotationLink
//..
  PDAnnotationLink link = (PDAnnotationLink) annotation;
  PDAction action = link.getAction();

//this would return buggy result: http://組匶替綎.com/
String badURI = ((PDActionURI) action).getURI();

//although, here fine result is returned: http://経営承継.com/
String goodURI = new String(((COSString)action.getCOSObject().getDictionaryObject("URI")).getBytes());
