pdfsam is the software I'm maintaining and it uses PdfCopy to concatenate documents. A user reported me this issue so I made some tests using the examples found here: http://itextdocs.lowagie.com/tutorial/general/copystamp/index.php and I found that Ghostscript (and others) complains also opening the concatenated.pdf document generated with the com.lowagie.examples.general.copystamp.Concatenate.java class.
