Andreas Lehmkühler resolved PDFBOX-493.
---------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
I've added Adams patch with version 810114 with some minor changes concerning
the jdk1.4 and checkstyle compliance.
Thanks for the contribution.

> Bookmarks are handled as references (object number and generation number) to
> page objects. Currently, it's not too difficult to get the reference to the
> page ID, and the page is quickly accessible. The problem is that we don't
> know what page number that is, which is a problem in some cases. For example
> if one wanted to split the document based on bookmarks, they would need to
> know how many pages to make each document.
> To solve this in the most efficient manner possible, I feel a Map is in order
> which will store page numbers using object IDs as the keys. This map will be
> loaded once and then can be quickly referenced many times. For the time
> being, the call to generatePageMap() will not happen when a PDF is loaded
> (it'll have to be called explicitly). If people find this very useful and
> not too costly (memory/CPU) it can be moved into the load function so users
> can access it automatically.
> I'll attach the code I've written to do this soon (as soon as I figure out
> how to do so).
