System.ArgumentException in Aspose.Pdf.Kit.PdfExtractor.ExtractText()

Aspose.PDF Product Family
1

Hi,

PDF document causing this is in the attachment. The document was produced using Aspose.Words & Aspose.Pdf.

I’m using .NET Framework 2.0 and Pdf.Kit 2.1.0.0.

Here is the test code:

PdfExtractor e = new PdfExtractor();
e.BindPdf(@“C:\Temp\PdfKitTest.pdf”);
e.ExtractText();


Here is the exception:

System.ArgumentException: The output char buffer is too small to contain the decoded characters, encoding ‘Unicode (UTF-8)’ fallback ‘System.Text.DecoderReplacementFallback’.
Parameter name: chars

Please try to resolve it ASAP, because we have this error ocurring in production (never seen this error before with other pdf-files).

Thank you

Robik

BTW your forum does not accept the PDF extension when trying to upload an attachment.

Thanks for considering Aspose.

You can compress the PDF as a ZIP extension with WinRar when uploading an attachment directly here in forum for testing.

We will check it out and give you an answer ASAP.
