Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-4814:
-----------------------------------------

I tried to reproduce this but couldn't do so. (merge a document with OCG and 
one without and one with OCG; also merge a document without and one with OCG 
and one without)

Can you share your PDF files?

A "COSObject" is an indirect reference. Our code is somewhat suspicious there. 
I wonder if it fails because one dictionary is direct and one indirect.

> If you merge a PDF document with OCProperties to a PDF document without 
> OCProperties, the result of the merge is that the OCProperties type is no 
> longer a COSDictionary but a COSObject. If a third document with OCProperties
