Good catch.

I don't know if PDFBox has a GitHub mirror, so here's the "traditional" way:

1. Download and make sure you can build PDFBox:
https://pdfbox.apache.org/building.html

2. Write a test case that reproduces the error with the current code

3. Edit PostScriptTable.java and apply your fix.

4. Make sure your test case now passes :)

5. Run this command to generate a patch file:

$ svn diff > PostScriptTable.NPE.patch

6. File a JIRA ticket here:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX

7. Attach your patch from step #5 to the JIRA ticket

8. Profit!

Hope that helps,
