Lonzak commented on PDFBOX-5587:
--------------------------------
I identified several documents where it (according to the log) did happen. I
tried it again and it didn't. I tried several documents but somehow we only
got the error for two weeks and now it is gone. That is really strange.
Could this be a concurrency issue? E.g. I found the following comment on the
getGlyph() method:
{code:java}
// PDFBOX-4219: synchronize on data because it is accessed by several threads
// when PDFBox is accessing a standard 14 font for the first time
{code}
I thus tried the image conversion using several threads but couldn't reproduce
it.
Out of curiosity: Is the code related to the system fonts or to the
(missing/invalid) font definition inside the PDF?

> This is a bit strange, since I thought that this bug was fixed with
> PDFBOX-3488
> PdfBox is running on a linux server but when I tried to access the PDFs I
> failed to find the right one (over 1 million docs on that server).
> On the other hand the fix linked in the ticket points to the following
> implementation:
>
> {code:java}
> @Override
> public GeneralPath getPath(int code) throws IOException{
> if (ttf.getGlyph() == null){
> throw new IOException("glyf table is missing in font " + getName());
> } {code}
> which does not exist anymore in 2.0.3 or higher:
>
> {code:java}
> @Override
> public GeneralPath getPath(int code) throws IOException{
> int gid = codeToGID(code);
> GlyphData glyph = ttf.getGlyph().getGlyph(gid); {code}
> Any idea why an NPE might occur?
> `ttf` might be null or `getGlyph` returns null?
