Maruan Sahyoun commented on PDFBOX-4976:
----------------------------------------

Introducing a strict mode can only be done gradually given the many workarounds 
put into PDFBox over the years. OTOH why not start with a specific area. Maybe 
instead of throwing an exception we can put the swallowed errors in a queue one 
could listen too. Little similar to throwing processing events in Apache FOP.

> When utilizing PDFBox in a security strict environment it can be useful to 
> enforce a stricter parsing mode. While this is not appropriate in all 
> contexts for some use cases - e.g. watermarked PDFs it is essential that the 
> PDF is rendered without errors.
>  
> This patch offers the ability to configure a system property which will 
> always throw an exception when an operatorException is triggered
> Patch attached
