Martijn Brinkers commented on PDFBOX-917:
-----------------------------------------
The problem is cause because the endobj is either missing or corrupt. The
current code in trunk that tries to handle this situation seems to be somewhat
too complicated because it fails to handle the missing endobj in a lot of
cases. I have added a patch that seems to handle non conforming PDFs with
missing endobj (which happens quite often) better for most cases (on a large
number of PDFs ebooks)
> Read non-conforming PDFs (attached) without throwing java.io.IOException:
