>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Writing
>    Affects Versions: 3.0.2 PDFBox
>            Reporter: Tilman Hausherr
>            Assignee: Tilman Hausherr
>            Priority: Minor
>             Fix For: 4.0.0, 3.0.3 PDFBox

> As written by Anthony Brunellière on the dev mailing list:
> {code:java}
> The method PDDocument.save(..) (version 3.0.2) generates a warning if the 
> output file already exists :
> {code:java}
> public void save(File file, CompressParameters compressParameters) throws 
> IOException
>     {
>         if (file.exists())
>         {
>             LOG.warn(
>                     "You are overwriting the existing file " + file.getName()
>                             + ", this will produce a corrupted file if you're 
> also reading from it");
>         }
> {code}
> I understand the disclaimer "Don't use the input file as target as this will 
> produce a corrupted file", but I'm in a context where an empty ouput file is 
> created just before for specific reasons.
> Should this warning be limited to non-empty files?
