----------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: PDFBOX-406
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-406
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: PDModel
         Environment: All
            Reporter: peter_lena...@ibi.com


The interface Cloneable has no methods defined.
public interface Cloneable { 
}

In package org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.common;
public class PDMatrix implements Cloneable, COSObjectable

The class, PDMatrix implements the Cloneable interface, yet it does not 
implement
The clone() method, if a method were to try and clone the class, there would be 
an exception thrown

Because this method is missing. 
The actual method Object.clone is a protected method.

There are 2 possible solutions, add this method
public Object clone() {
}
But; since there are no apparently calls to clone this class,
I suggest removing the Cloneable interface from the declaration.
