I'm not completely sure, but wouldn't this parse links and make them accessible again, possibly even clickable?
- edoceo 7y agoMaybe use pdftotext wrapper to extract text along side the image based pdf.
- clort 7y agoA links displayed text and its destination URL are not necessarily the same. Rendering the document to a bitmap then OCRing that would get the display text rather than the URL. I would think that it would be normal for a malicious URL to be obscured with an innocent looking display text.
- seanhunter 7y agoGiven the security focus here I'd be somewhat surprised if they did this - links are one of the main threat vectors associated with pdfs.
