Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-3401:
-----------------------------------------

Are you sure that the error happens in 1.8.9? I had a look and from what I saw, 
{{PDXObject.createXObject(obj);}} would return null if not called with a 
{{COSStream}}.

A snapshot should be available within a few hours. Please test and give 
feedback.

> PDObjectReference getReferencedObject() returns null is referenced obj is not 
> a COSStream

> When creating a pdf I am setting a PDAnnoation as the referenced object of a 
> PDObjectReference using setReferencedObject.
> When I subsequently load the same document and then call getReferencedObject 
> on the PDObjectReference, null is returned. This is because an exception is 
> thrown in PDXObject.createXObject (called inside getReferencedObject) as the 
> referenced object is not a COSStream, just a COSDictionary.
