Andreas Lehmkühler commented on PDFBOX-2430:
--------------------------------------------

seems to be no argument in pdftoimage to use legacy parser.
{quote}
That's correct. The legacy parser is still there for one reason only: signing,
see PDFBOX-2515. If we find a solution for that remaining part soon the old
parser will be removed in 2.0

Exception in thread "main" java.io.IOException: Missing length for stream.

I had a quick look at the source. It seems as if it isn't neccessary to throw
that exception as the parser subsequent checks the stream lenth anyway. I'm
going to check that later

> context, so that all load/loadNonSeq will be replaced by a load method.
