Dominik Schmidt commented on TIKA-4860:
---------------------------------------
Bounding the pre-parse rendering by maxPages would make both strategies behave
the same, which is what I expected. The alternative is documenting that
maxPages only applies to text extraction, in case someone relies on
RENDER_PAGES_BEFORE_PARSE to render all pages while extracting little text.
Which way would you prefer?
> PDF RENDER_PAGES_BEFORE_PARSE ignores maxPages

> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Dominik Schmidt
> Priority: Major
>
> With "imageStrategy": "RENDER_PAGES_BEFORE_PARSE" the PDF parser renders
> every page (PageRangeRequest.RENDER_ALL) even when maxPages limits the parse;
> RENDER_PAGES_AT_PAGE_END honours it. A 10-page PDF with maxPages: 1 renders
> 10 pages before parse and 1 page at page end. Either bound the pre-parse
> rendering by maxPages or document that maxPages only applies to text
> extraction.
