Hi,

When I retrieve the xreftable from a pdf with cross-reference-streams (as opposed 
to a cross reference table) some of the objects in the returned table map have a 
negative offset.  I've looked in the documentation (both pdf reference & pdfbox 
docs) and haven't found anything referring to this.

For example:

OBJ_NUMBER , OFFSET
49,12769
50,25217
51,25502
52,26034
53,116
54,-36
55,-36
56,-36

When looking at the PDF in a hex editor, the objects and their offsets are 
correct when they are positive. But, what do I need to do to resolve object 54? 
How can I retrieve the byte offset?
A negative offset indicates that the given object is part of a compressed object stream. In your case that stream is object 36 0.

Thanks in advance for your time.
