Hi, My GAE application strips attachments from inbound emails and saves them as byte[]. Objectify translates the byte[] to a com.google.appengine.api.datastore.Blob (does not utilize BlobStore). For some files, it embeds equal signs in places where the original document doesn't have any equal signs. I've found that MS documents and HTML are rather tolerant of this behavior, but PDFs tend to get corrupt when this happens. Does anyone know why these equal signs are added in seemingly random places? Any other advice to get around this?
Below is an example of the contents of a PDF from the "more" command. You can see the equal signs from the second representation of the file. Original file (Good): 1 0 obj << /CreationDate (D:20101203120005) /Producer (SCS2PDF v1.0 (\251 BeppeCosta, 2005)) /Title (PRINT1) >> endobj 2 0 obj << /Type /Catalog /Pages 3 0 R >> endobj File Snippet After Saving to DataStore (Bad): 1 0 obj << /CreationDate = (D:20101203120005) /Producer (SCS2PDF v1.0 (\251 BeppeCosta, = 2005)) /Title (PRINT1) >> endobj 2 0 obj << /Type = /Catalog /Pages 3 0 R >> endobj Any thoughts? thanks!
