Tim, 1.8.7 seems to have fixed all our issues! Thanks so much for recommending
this.
I'm "Tilman". "Tim" is a (very nice) committer from Apache TIKA, a
project that does use PDFBox.
We do have two images that seem troublesome:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/35lafjdqrt7vy3e/michael%20levine.pdf?dl=0 (after
merging TL-9 page is black)
Then please post the other file, and the result. In other words - just
assume we're dumb and lazy, so please provide every file / step that
produces an error, rather describe more than needed. Even then,
solutions may take some time:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1511
took oder a year and was a group effort of at least six people.
And there's a contradiction: you're writing "1.8.7 seems to have fixed
all our issues", but then you're mentioning two new problems...
https://www.dropbox.com/s/dwlxoj2hpvbnr5i/badform.pdf?dl=0 (file is password
protected, does PDFBox have a way around this?)
I was able to display it in the browser. I didn't test it wirh PDFBox;
some files are protected with the empty password. If you use the new
nonSeq parser (loadNonSeq()), just use "" as extra parameter. If you use
load(), then it is more complex, then use openProtection() (download the
source code to see how)

I’d love to hear your thoughts on this...
Thanks,
Marc

Then please retry with 1.8.7, because the problem should be fixed there,
hopefully. (A problem related to identically named resources in both PDF files)
if it still happens, please open an issue in JIRA, and attach the two PDF files
and the result. If the files are confidential, please try producing
non-confidential files.

What version are you using? We recently fixed a bug with merge.

I use pdfbox to merge PDF files but we find that many files from scanners or
files generated from AutoCAD do not merge properly (they are either blank or
missing fonts). However, when we open and save the file in a native reader
such as Adobe Reader (Windows) or Preview in Mac, and then merge again, the
merge works fine!
Is there a workaround for this in PDFBox?
Thanks,
Marc
