Maruan Sahyoun commented on PDFBOX-1589:
----------------------------------------

I agree - it has to be for good reasons. I see two topics in making 1.7 as a 
minimum requirement

# bugs in 1.6 which have been solved in 1.7 and are affecting PDFBox features 
(which John is referring to)
# 1.7 features which may improve PDFBox (e.g. there was a comment in 
PDFBOX-2871 about a potential speedup)


> Switch to java 1.6 as minimum requirement for PDFBox
