I'm trying to take a pdf that I have stored in an oracle database and to
then use iText to alter the pdf then output it as stream to a web client.
I'm trying to do this without using any files, only streams.
The problem I have is that although I appear to be getting the stream of the
oracle blob; when I try to convert it to a byte[] I get this error:
java.io.IOException: PDF startxref not found.
at com.lowagie.text.pdf.PRTokeniser.getStartxref(Unknown Source)
at com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfReader.readXref(Unknown Source)
at com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfReader.readPdf(Unknown Source)
at com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfReader.<init>(Unknown Source)
at Test.main(Test.java:197)
and these are the last few lines when I print the output of the pdf:
/CreationDate (D:20020506141920)
/Producer (Acrobat Distiller 4.05 for Windows)
/ModDate (D:20020506163216-04'00')

It looks to me as if this is the line its looking for but can't find for
some reason.
Does anyone have any ideas about this.
Thanks.
