Description
Following the URL that displays when Greenstone GLI runs without the PDFbox extension installed, a user goes to the TRAC site and follows this path:
Browse Source, gs2-extensions,pdf-box,trunk
two archive files are listed:
Pdf-box-java.zip (a zip archive for windows users) Pdf-box-java.tar.gz (a zipped tarball)
While they are supposed to be 9.1 mb in size the actual files when downloaded are only 8kb in size and neither are valid archives
This means the pdf-box extension cannot be used. The workaround is for users to convert all pdfs to version 1.4 before importing to greenstone.
