Timo Boehme commented on PDFBOX-1174:
-------------------------------------
This is a 'normal' problem with the current serial PDF parser. If an object is
parsed it expects the start of another one (reading the object number). However
there are a large number of PDFs in the wild containing some garbage in
between. For a conforming parser using the XREF table this is not a problem
since it only parses the content the XREF table refers to.
The current short term solution is to specify 'forceParsing=true' in
PDDocument.load( FILENAME, forceParsing ). This will try to find the next
object start if such an error like the reported one occurs.
The long term solution is a conforming parser (PDFBOX-1000) or a nearly
conforming parser (PDFBOX-1104). I have reworked the first code of PDFBOX-1104
so that it is now a valid replacement of the current parser. In short time I
will post this to PDFBOX-1104.
