John Hewson commented on PDFBOX-2600:
-------------------------------------

Looking at the code in NonSequentialPDFParser, most of the FDF handling code 
doesn't really seem to be necessary and seems to be an artefact of some quirks 
of NonSequentialPDFParser rather than something fundamental. I suspect that you 
just need to generalise the FDF-specific code in NonSequentialPDFParser so that 
there is no longer any FDF-specifc code left.

However, if you do want to take the PDFParser / FDFParser route, then their 
common file format is COS, so COSParser would be a good name for the superclass.
