Michael:
You're right. Copy / paste for the loose; I read right over it. :(
corrected code:
package s;
import java.io.FileWriter;
import java.io.InputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.net.URL;
import java.net.URLConnection;
import java.net.Malforme
From the JDK docs:
FileWriter is meant for writing streams of characters. For writing streams of
raw bytes, consider using a FileOutputStream.
You get characters replaced depending on your platforms character encoding. You
must ensure you're writing bytes and not characters!

First difference (on second line, first line is for reference point):
bad:

Start of second line in hex: 78 DA 3F 55 0B 4C 53 57
good:

Thanks Grant.
But I have thousands of PDF URLs like this. I have tried around 12 so far.
Can all of them be corrupt?
What can I do about this?

I ran the code [2]. The pdf is corrupted by the code as MD5s are different.
File sizes are identical [1];

Following is the code and the URL.
URL url = new URL ("

");
con = url.openConnection();
InputStream in = con.getInputStream();
FileWriter out = new FileWriter("C:/My.pdf
Yogesh,
Compare the file size and hash (SHA1, MD5, etc.) of the file you download
from your browser with the file that Java downloads. The end of the file
may be missing when you download it via Java. I know you said the file
size is correct, but is it the *exact* same number of bytes? If so
Hrm, That's odd.
Can you post the code you tried? An perhaps the url?

Yes. I can download the file through the browser. It works perfectly fine.

I tried with that, it writes a blank PDF. Though, the file size and the
number of pages is correct (for the new written file)

You don't need pdfBox to do this. Below is some rough code that allows you
to download a file and save it.
URLConnection urlConnection = new URL("http://...";);
InputStream in = urlConnection.getInputStream();
FileWriter out = new FileWriter("my.pdf");
int next = 0;
while ( ( next = in.read
Hi,
I have PDFs which I can access through URLs. I want to download and save it
to files. How can I go about it?
Thanks
