So your problem is with PDFBox that can't read the text? You're in the wrong
mailing list.

Subject: [iText-questions] Reuse the same file multiple time...
Hello,
I would like to take one file, create with his contains another, and another
and another... (multiple time, for example to get a file, and make two,
after make four, ...).
My problem is that after the creation of two files, the last is unreadable
and I don't know what I do wrong... For my tests, I take one PDF (PDF_A)
from 1 page, and I create the PDF_B. After I take PDF_B to create PDF_C and
there PDF_C is unreadable (with Code using PDFBox, but I can open and read
it by the OS system). When I use the code below to read the new PDF, it see
just the contains : "\r\n"
Test with IText 2.1.4 and 2.1.7.
What I do wrong during the creation of the new file ?
Thanks
