Hello dear PDFBox-Users.

Coming from fop via xmlgraphics and the fop-pdf-images package to PdfBox, I 
have to admit, I don't really know much about the internal structure of a PDF 
file. But I have a PDF file which I want to load using 
PDFParser.load(InputStream, null), but some way through the parsing process 
BaseParser.parseDirObject() throws an IOException("expected false 
actual='fa'"). I downloaded the latest source code for the class and in line 
871 indeed the string "false" is expected, but "fa" followed by three empty 
bytes is received. 

Can anybody tell me, how I can find out why the pdf can not be parsed? Maybe 
the file is corrupted earlier, but Acrobat can display it and iText can parse 
it without problems. Since the PDF file has 2MB, I don't want to send it to the 
list, so if somebody would be so kind and take the time to look into the PDF, I 
could send the file per mail. 

Regards,
 
Georg Datterl
