Thomas Chojecki resolved PDFBOX-1328.
-------------------------------------

    Resolution: Later
      Assignee: Thomas Chojecki

I took a look at the code and the pdf specification and at the moment it is not 
possible to fix this issue.

Here is one part from the section 7.3.3 from the specification:

"PDF provides two types of numeric objects: integer and real. Integer objects 
represent mathematical integers. Real objects represent mathematical real 
numbers. The range and precision of numbers may be limited by the internal 
representations used in the computer on which the conforming reader is running"

Currently we interpret the Integer as Java int. So we would need to switch to 
long to solve this issue. Maybe we will do this later, so the issue will be 
solved automatically, but at the moment no fix is needed.

> PDSignature should return byte range as long array

> Fix for PDFBOX-1196 should be propagated to PDSignature, which should return 
> the byte range, that this signature covers, as long array (currently - int 
> array).
