I ran into the same problem.
Swapped from 1.7.1 to 1.8.0 and then started to get corrupt pdf files from
pdfbox.
But I was not sure whether it is caused by pdfbox 1.8.0 or my little
custom changes that I made to source codes (same as I did to 1.7.1).
(hadn't time to check that yet)
Now it seems that there is some bug in 1.8.0 if other users have the same
problem.

Subject: Re: Error when opening multi-page PDF generated by PDFBox
Hi,
I downloaded pdfbox-1.7.1 then replaced the pdfbox-1.8.0 library with
1.7.1. I then ran the code against the combined document. The resulting
new171-CombinedLoremIpsum.pdf opens without error.

Looks like there may be an issue with pdfbox-1.8.0.

Hi,
which version of pdfbox are you using? Can you test using pdfbox-1.7.1
AND pdfbox-1.8.0?
With kind regards

Andreas,
I generated 3 test documents.
LoremIpsum.pdf a two page PDF document output from Lorem Ipsum web
page.
http://ceratopsian.net/pdf/LoremIpsum.pdf
GeneratedLoremIpsum.pdf is a second PDF document generated using print
to PDF from Microsoft Word.
http://ceratopsian.net/pdf/GeneratedLoremIpsum.pdf
CombinedLoremIpsum.pdf was created using Acrobat Pro to open
LoremIpsum.pdf then inserting GeneratedLoremIpsum.pdf after the second
page.
http://ceratopsian.net/pdf/CombinedLoremIpsum.pdf
I then ran the FindActionLinks code below stripped down to load then
save a new PDF file against all three files. The single documents,
LoremIpsum.df and GeneratedLoremIpsum.pdf generated files that can be
opened without error.
http://ceratopsian.net/pdf/new-LoremIpsum.pdf
http://ceratopsian.net/pdf/new-GeneratedLoremIpsum.pdf
The file generated from the CombinedLoremIpsum.pdf generates an error
when opened.
The file “new-CombinedLoremIpsum.pdf” could not be opened. It may be
damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn’t recognize.

Additional information: The error occurred on Norwegian documents. I
just tested outputting two English Word documents as PDF then combined the
two using Acrobat Pro then ran the code below. The result gave me the same
error when trying to open the output file using Preview.

Hello,
I generated a multi page document using Acrobat Pro by opening one
PDF document then using insert from file to add a second page. My goal was
to switch launch links to go to links but early on I got an error when
trying to open the PDFBox generated file with either Preview or Acrobat:
The file “NEW_AllPages.pdf” could not be opened.
It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn’t
recognize.
I stripped out all of the link code and ran the following where I
load the input file and output a file based on command line arguments.
public class FindActionLinks {
private static void usage() {
System.err.println( "usage: " + FindActionLinks.class.getName()
+ " <input-file> <output-file>" );
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
PDDocument doc = null;
try {
if (args.length != 2) {
usage();
} else {
doc = PDDocument.load(args[0]);
doc.save( args[1] );
}
} finally {
if (doc != null) {
doc.close();
}
}
}
}
After running this code I the error was the same. I then ran the
code on a single PDF document that had no inserted pages from file. Is
this a bug? Any idea on how to correct this?
That's hard without having a hand on the pdf in question.
Thanks,
Chris
