John Hewson commented on PDFBOX-2538:
-------------------------------------

Anecdotally I've seen files with contain unused resources in the past and 
Acrobat's Prefligth doesn't even list them as being present, so I doubt that it 
is validating them. So I think we're safe to only validate when a resource is 
used.

This is one of the major flaws in the current architecture of our Preflight.

> avoid "-1 : Unknown error"

> e.g. error 4 in PDFBOX-2513
> after all, we know what the reason is.
> Ideas:
> 1) create COSStreamException extends IOException in COSStream.java
> 2) in SinglePageValidationProcess.validateContent() examine the root cause 
> exception type to classify smarter than just ERROR_UNKOWN_ERROR
> any other thoughts?
