> I was trying to use the PDFMergerUtility class to merge some PDFs. Using the
> unmodified PDFBox source, I get a NullPointerException when I call
> mergeDocuments(). I made two different copies of the same file to make sure
> it wasn't caused by something like file access. The file opens fine with
> Adobe Acrobat, and PDFBox can load the document with no problem, so it
> doesn't seem to be a corrupt PDF in this case. I'm not familiar with the
> PDOutlineNode class, so I'm not sure where to go from here. I will attach
> the PDF I'm using to this bug report. If there's anything else I can provide
> let me know.
> Code:
> public static void main(String[] args) {
> String inputFile0 = "C:\\US_Constitutional_Ammendments_copy.pdf";
> String inputFile1 = "C:\\US_Constitutional_Ammendments.pdf";
> String outputFile = "C:\\US_Constitutional_Ammendments_output.pdf";
> try {
> PDFMergerUtility pdfMergerUtil = new PDFMergerUtility();
> pdfMergerUtil.setDestinationFileName(outputFile);
> pdfMergerUtil.addSource(inputFile0);
> pdfMergerUtil.addSource(inputFile1);
> pdfMergerUtil.mergeDocuments();
> System.out.println("Yay, nothing went wrong.");
> } catch(Exception e) {
> System.out.println("Oh no, something went wrong!");
> e.printStackTrace();
> }
> }
