Hi Andreas, sorry I was busy uploading the PDFs and writing the mail, didn't see your mail, but I figured PDFToImage might be the correct choice here ;).
I do not get any exceptions but some info logs, which are: Apr 8, 2013 10:16:49 AM org.apache.pdfbox.util.PDFStreamEngine processOperator INFO: unsupported/disabled operation: BX Apr 8, 2013 10:16:50 AM org.apache.pdfbox.util.PDFStreamEngine processOperator INFO: unsupported/disabled operation: BDC Apr 8, 2013 10:16:50 AM org.apache.pdfbox.util.PDFStreamEngine processOperator INFO: unsupported/disabled operation: BMC Apr 8, 2013 10:16:50 AM org.apache.pdfbox.util.PDFStreamEngine processOperator INFO: unsupported/disabled operation: i Apr 8, 2013 10:16:50 AM org.apache.pdfbox.util.PDFStreamEngine processOperator INFO: unsupported/disabled operation: DP Apr 8, 2013 10:16:51 AM org.apache.pdfbox.util.PDFStreamEngine processOperator INFO: unsupported/disabled operation: EMC Apr 8, 2013 10:16:52 AM org.apache.pdfbox.util.PDFStreamEngine processOperator INFO: unsupported/disabled operation: EX Those I get for every page in this document.
