Hi
I have also encountered similar issues with PDFs from other Windows
softwares.
The workaround I use is to recreate the PDF in any available software
which ignores missing EOFs, endstreams etc.
Programmatically, this can be done as described in
https://codedprojects.wordpress.com/2017/06/09/how-to-fix-pypdf-error-eof-marker-not-found/
Hi all,
I'm currently working on a map viewer application that uses GDAL for
processing geo-referenced map images. Up till now I've been
successfully using the poppler library for PDF support, but am
currently trying to shift to the podofo/poppler hybrid approach
(podofo library with poppler pdftoppm utility) to work around
poppler's GPL licence restrictions.
I have a collection of sample map PDF documents generated by ESRI
ArcMap 10 (different documents from different releases in the 10.x
release family), which I could successfully process with GDAL/poppler,
but most of which fail to load with GDAL/podofo. The document loading
also fails with the stand-alone podofo pdftoppm utility, both with a
version that I've built from podofo 0.9.6 source and with the 0.9.3
version installed onto my ubuntu xenial machine from the APT package
repository.
The typical error message is as follows:
Error: An error 5 ocurred during uncompressing the pdf file.
PoDoFo encounter an error. Error: 5 ePdfError_UnexpectedEOF
Error Description: End of file was reached unxexpectedly.
Callstack:
#0 Error Source:
/build/libpodofo-NltoF1/libpodofo-0.9.3/src/base/PdfParser.cpp:226
Information: Unable to load objects from file.
#1 Error Source:
/build/libpodofo-NltoF1/libpodofo-0.9.3/src/base/PdfParser.cpp:334
Information: Unable to load xref entries.
#2 Error Source:
/build/libpodofo-NltoF1/libpodofo-0.9.3/src/base/PdfParser.cpp:738
#3 Error Source:
/build/libpodofo-NltoF1/libpodofo-0.9.3/src/base/PdfTokenizer.cpp:339
which seems to indicate an invalid xref table.
I don't think this is a podofo bug as such, as various online pdf
validators I've tried also flag the documents as problematic, but
several other bits of pdf software I've tried (notably the poppler
library utilities) seem to treat it as a non-fatal recoverable error.
Has anyone else come across this and come up with a work-around or fix?
