PDF Box将拆分操作产生的零件作为PDDocument类型的对象存储为堆中的对象,这导致堆快速填充,即使在循环的每一轮之后调用close()操作,GC仍会无法以与填充相同的方式回收堆大小。
一个选项是将文档拆分操作拆分为多个批次,其中每个批次是一个相对易于管理的块(10至40页)
public void execute() {
File inputFile = new File(path/to/the/file.pdf);
PDDocument document = null;
try {
document = PDDocument.load(inputFile);
int start = 1;
int end = 1;
int batchSize = 50;
int finalBatchSize = document.getNumberOfPages() % batchSize;
int noOfBatches = document.getNumberOfPages() / batchSize;
for (int i = 1; i <= noOfBatches; i++) {
start = end;
end = start + batchSize;
System.out.println("Batch: " + i + " start: " + start + " end: " + end);
split(document, start, end);
}
// handling the remaining
start = end;
end += finalBatchSize;
System.out.println("Final Batch start: " + start + " end: " + end);
split(document, start, end);
} catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
//close the document
}
}
private void split(PDDocument document, int start, int end) throws IOException {
List fileList = new ArrayList();
Splitter splitter = new Splitter();
splitter.setStartPage(start);
splitter.setEndPage(end);
List splittedDocuments = splitter.split(document);
String outputPath = Config.INSTANCE.getProperty("outputPath");
PDFTextStripper stripper = new PDFTextStripper();
for (int index = 0; index < splittedDocuments.size(); index++) {
String pdfFullPath = document.getDocumentInformation().getTitle() + index + start+ ".pdf";
PDDocument splittedDocument = splittedDocuments.get(index);
splittedDocument.save(pdfFullPath);
}
