John Hewson commented on PDFBOX-1589:
-------------------------------------

I'd really like to push PDFBox 2.0 as a complete replacement for PDFBox  1.8 
and that alone might be a good reason for maintaining JDK 1.6 compatibility. We 
generally haven't been trying to workaround any JDK bugs which have been fixed 
in later versions - though we have numerous workarounds for as yet unfixed JDK 
bugs!

> Switch to java 1.6 as minimum requirement for PDFBox
