PDFMergerUtility

                 Key: PDFBOX-879
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-879
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Utilities
    Affects Versions: 1.3.1
         Environment: JDK 1.6.0_22
            Reporter: MH


I concatenate PDFs with the PDFMergerUtility. As long as I concat my (with FOP) 
created PDFs that are in "PDF 1.4" format, I get no issue when viewing the 
result. But when one of the PDFs is a "PDF 1.2" document, the resulting PDF 
will also have "PDF 1.2" version. When viewing this concatenated PDF in Acrobat 
Reader (9), the first (originally PDF-1.2) document gets viewed without errors, 
but as soon as I scroll further to the second page (with the other PDF-1.4 
PDFs), I get errors like

"Fehler auf dieser Seite. Die Seite wird unter Umständen nicht richtig in 
Acrobat angezeigt. Wenden Sie sich an den Ersteller des PDF-Dokuments, um das 
Problem zu beheben." (Roughly: errors on this page.)

or

"Ungültiger Parameter." (Roughly: invalid parameter.)

Note: when concatenated with iText 2.1.7, the resulting PDF has version "1.4" 
and no errors occur in Adobe Reader.

Is it possible to tell the merger to set the PDF Version of the result PDF?
