> Key: PDFBOX-914
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-914
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Utilities
> Affects Versions: 1.3.1
> Environment: All
> Reporter: Neil McErlean
> Assignee: Andreas Lehmkühler
> Fix For: 1.4.0

> Attachments: PDFBOX-914.patch

>
> If you create a PDF document from org.apache.pdfbox.TextToPDF like so:
> TextToPDF pdfCreator = new TextToPDF();
> PDDocument pdfDoc = pdfCreator.createPDFFromText(new StringReader(""));
> // Note the empty String
> then it does produce a PDF file. But the file cannot be opened as it contains
> no pages.
> Adobe Reader (I have 9.4.1), and Mac OSX's Preview/Quicklook cannot open the
> document.
> I have attached (or will do in a minute) a patch that includes a test case
> that reproduces the problem (no PDPages in a PDF with no text).
> And I've patched TextToPDF so that it inserts a single empty page for an
> empty string input.
