    Windows probably blocks the PDFBox DLLs because they were downloaded from the Internet. Unblock the ZIP file (PDFBox.NET-1.8.9.zip) in the file propertites, then unzip it replacing your existing DLLs.

    I tried the same creating a new Project and added all the dlls.

    Still I am getting the same error.

     

    1. Which Version of TestComplete are you using, mine is Testcomplete 11.20?

    2. Which Version of PDFBox.NET are you uing, mine is PDFBox.NET-1.8.9?

    Please find the attched Sample Project.

     

    you need to remove the existing DLLs and add DLLs from your System Directory.

    there is no problem here.

    the issue must be in the selected path for the dll

    the place the dlls are must be shared by the place TestComplete is.

     

    Try to put the pdfbox dll folder in the desktop of the machine where TestComplete is installed.

    just do it kick and dirty : no need to remove the 37 olds paths...

    Hi Helen,

     

    I am facing the same issue when trying to use the function "function findText(docObj, string)". It gives the error "'JavaClasses.org_apache_pdfbox_util.PDFTextStripper' is null or not an object 16:41:21 Normal ". I followed the steps from here:

    https://support.smartbear.com/articles/testcomplete/testing-pdf-files-with-testcomplete/

     

    Which DLL did you mean which should be unblocked? I just have a .jar file pdfbox-2.0.8 and have added the required Java classes under Java bridge in TestComplete. Please advise. Thank you.
