PDF Clown Highlight multiple search word is failing for PDF contains images, color text, Complex Diagrams
I´m using PDFClown to highlight the multiple search word in a PDF Document. In many pdf documents which contains colorful images , Complex diagrams, colored text PDFClown throws exception there and cannot highlight the matching words. The code mentioned is working fine for normal or simple Pdf's.
Here is the PDF I used for testing https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-nuOO6Zsa4rXy1DS2JjX1RnYmM/view?usp=sharing

Solution
This is a bug in PDF Clown: During text extraction it uses a custom Comparator implementation which does not completely follow the Comparator contract. In Java 7 and below this was ignored but in Java 8 this results in the exception at hand. If you instruct Java to use the old sorting algorithm, the program runs without exception.
The comparator
This is the faulty comparator
/**
Text string position comparator.
*/
private static class TextStringPositionComparator
implements Comparator<ITextString>
{
/**
Gets whether the specified boxes lay on the same text line.
*/
public static boolean isOnTheSameLine(
Rectangle2D box1,
Rectangle2D box2
)
{
/*
NOTE: In order to consider the two boxes being on the same line,
we apply a simple rule of thumb: at least 25% of a box's height MUST
lay on the horizontal projection of the other one.
*/
double minHeight = Math.min(box1.getHeight(), box2.getHeight());
double yThreshold = minHeight * .75;
return ((box1.getY() > box2.getY() - yThreshold
&& box1.getY() < box2.getMaxY() + yThreshold - minHeight)
|| (box2.getY() > box1.getY() - yThreshold
&& box2.getY() < box1.getMaxY() + yThreshold - minHeight));
}
@Override
public int compare(
ITextString textString1,
ITextString textString2
)
{
Rectangle2D box1 = textString1.getBox();
Rectangle2D box2 = textString2.getBox();
if(isOnTheSameLine(box1,box2))
{
/*
[FIX:55:0.1.3] In order not to violate the transitive condition, equivalence on x-axis
MUST fall back on y-axis comparison.
*/
int xCompare = Double.compare(box1.getX(), box2.getX());
if(xCompare != 0)
return xCompare;
}
return Double.compare(box1.getY(), box2.getY());
}
}
As indicated by the comment [FIX:55:0.1.3] ..., the author already had encountered issues with sorting. Unfortunately, though, he only fixed a single troublesome situation.
Obviously the isOnTheSameLine test used in compare can very often be the cause of non-transitivity, consider a situation with three ITextString instances A, B, and C:
(This can happen in regular text, e.g. in a line with first some text in subscript, then some in normal writing, then some in superscript.)
A and B would be considered to be on the same line and also B and C, but not A and C. Thus, the former two pairs will each be compared by x coordinates while the last one will be compared by y coordinates, resulting in a non-transitivity:
- A < B and
- B < C, but
- A > C (PDF Clown uses y coordinates increasing downwards).
The identity condition can also be violated, consider the case of two ITextString instances A and B, both having the same box, i.e. both having the same dimensions and being printed at the same position (e.g. to build a symbol out of overlapping letters). compare would return 0 which should only happen if comparing an objects with its equal ("should" because this merely is recommended, not strictly required).
Most often, though, the comparator does sort the text pieces as one considers correct.
A work-around
Before Java 8 built-in Java sorting algorithms did not test whether a Comparator implementation fulfilled the contract. The sort result might not be properly sorted but no exception was thrown by the sorting. (Some later called routines assuming the array to be sorted might fail abysmally, though.)
Java 8, though, uses a different default sorting algorithm which does some sanity checks recognizing some effects of unfulfilled Comparator contracts on the sorting process.
But by using the command line JRE parameter
-Djava.util.Arrays.useLegacyMergeSort=true
you can tell Java 8 to use the old sorting method which does not fail by exception.
