-----------------------------------------
[~mikemccand] The problem was that the test didn't pick a random seed to start
:-(
> LZWFilter fails / TestFilters is non-determinate

> Key: PDFBOX-1977
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1977
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.8.5, 2.0.0
> Reporter: John Hewson
> Assignee: Tilman Hausherr
> Labels: LZW
> Fix For: 1.8.5, 2.0.0

>
> TestFilters uses Random().nextLong() to generate a seed for random data,
> which means that it is non-determinate. Depending on the seed value, the test
> may fail or succeed.
> Using the following seed results in the LZW filter failing:
> final long seed = -6257105096642706464L;
