----------------------------------
Summary: Add option to not add ID to trailer
Key: PDFBOX-5053
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-5053
Project: PDFBox
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Writing
Affects Versions: 2.0.21
Reporter: Marc Knaup
We're using PDFBox to modify metadata of an existing PDF file. The input PDF
file has no ID in its trailer which is fine because it's optional.
When reading the input PDF file with PDFBox and then writing it again it adds
an ID to the trailer. This is not desired because
a) the input file does not have an ID and the input should only be minimally
modified.
b) it changes the meaning from not having an identity to having an identity and
being the first version of the document.
An option to prevent PDFBox from creating an artificial misleading ID would be
very helpful.
