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.
