Strange performance problem with certain PDF files

[Stahle, Patrick]

Hi all,

I am running into a lot of strange performance issues with certain PDF files.

Background info:
The strange thing I can't reproduce this consistently. When I get a pdf being 
generated on a particular environment it seems consistent. I do most of my 
development inside VirtualBox virtual machine running fedora. These pdf files I 
am having problems with never have performance issues when run on my virtual 
machine local drive, but if I use a Virtual Box Shared drive as the source / 
destination for the PDF, I see the problem. Another co-worker working from pure 
windows environment experience the performance problem. We are also seeing the 
same issue on our dev solaris servers. The performance range can be quite 
drastic on one of our 3DPDF's (12meg) running on my local environment it can be 
opened, stamped with some text, encrypted, and saved in around 8 sec. Doing the 
same job pointing to a virtual box share drive or on our solaris server that 
same work will take minutes. On my coworkers windows environment it takes 
around 30 seconds. We really only reproduced this consistently on the 12m 3D  
PDF. I have a much smaller pdf (non 3d / convert from msoffice) that does show 
similar performance issue but the times range from 200ms local to 8 sec.

The one thing I see in common between the 2 files is I see a lot of the 
following messages to the console:
Using output from the 12m 3DPDF file:
:
:
1787 [main] DEBUG org.apache.pdfbox.pdfparser.PDFObjectStreamParser  - 
parsed=COSObject{13166, 0}

These messages seem to happen on the PDDocument.open and from what I can tell, 
I get 13,166 of these messages in this example PDF.
The slowness does not happen until the following line:
document.save(outputPDFStream);

Other PDF's including some quite large I do not see this performance issue nor 
those log messages.

I know this is not much to go on, I am working on seeing if I can isolate this 
down to something more concrete / reproducible point. But I thought I would 
send this out to see if anyone has any ideas or have seen issues similar to 
this? Suggestions?

Thanks,
Patrick

Yeah, getWidgets also works, in the versions it's implemented. Glad to hear
you got it to work!

   John,
  
 I think I have got the idea ... Thumps up 
  
  
 Best regards ,
 Hesham 
  
 
 Included message :
  
 I’m rather confused by this thread, inferring spaces is one of the the main  
features of PDFTextStripper. I’m not sure why anyone is suggesting to process  
the text manually - there’s no need to do that. We do that already!
  
 Looking at the original code the problem is right here:
  
 > public class PDFTextStripperProcessor extends PDFTextStripper {
 >@Override
 >public void processTextPosition( TextPosition text  )  {
 >System.out.println(  text.getCharacter() );
 >}
 > }
  
 The processTextPosition method is used to pass an unprocessed TextPosition  
*in* to PDFTextStripper, but this override prevents that from happening, and is 
 just printing the unprocessed token before PDFTextStripper has had a chance to 
 do its job, such as inferring the missing spaces.
  
 You should follow our PrintTextLocations.java example which shows you how  to 
get the processed TextPositions from PDFTextStripper. It’s really easy to  do.

Re: Spaces are ignored when reading a PDF file

[clovis]

just an idea from whom is not fluent in pdfbox nor PDF.
if you just want to know there is a space in between the letters and not
the amount of spaces, you can use your code to get character details and
then use extractText to get the words.

Issues while writing Chinese content using contentStream.drawString

[Tiruppathi Rajan G]

Hi,


Can anyone help me to write Chinese content into a PDF using PDFBox API?

I am referring to the suggestions mentioned in the JIRA

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1705

Kindly go through my comments (copy pasted again here) and advise on the
next steps;


Hi,

I am unable to write Chinese content into a PDF using your attached
EmbeddedFonts.java. Later I found way to fix it by feeding in the
"arialuni.ttf" instead of LiberationSans-Regular.ttf in your example. I had
confirmed the Chinese PDF generation by writing a hardcoded Chinese data in
my example. Later I had extended this piece of logic to write the desired
PDF in my application but got into "java.lang.IllegalArgumentException:
U+008A is not available in this font's encoding: WinAnsiEncoding". Please
advise.

1. From my application, i call an external Webservice and that returns the
Chinese + English content in response as a String,
2. I read this response string using UTF-8 as the Charset and unmarshal it
to Java bean using JAXRB.
3. To the contentStream.drawString() i passed the string calling the getter
method on the pojo which has Chinese data stored in a String variable. This
is where i am getting the above exception. Please help me to fix this.

I am using PDFBox version 2.0.0.-RC3. Your help is much appreciated.

Regards,
Tiru

Sorry, I meant that the line

be enclosed by the "synchronized".

I did have the same problem while working on
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3267

What I did was to change the source code of PDICCBased.java, i.e. 
change this line


awtColorSpace = 
(ICC_ColorSpace)ColorSpace.getInstance(ColorSpace.CS_sRGB);



to

synchronized(LOG)
 {
   awtColorSpace = 
(ICC_ColorSpace)ColorSpace.getInstance(ColorSpace.CS_sRGB);

}


This is a java bug. I'm undecided whether the change above should be 
committed. But try the change :-)

RE: Multiple instances of the same field name

[Kevin Ternes]

Thank you!  Here is an implementation of Gilad's advice:

  PDField pdField = pdAcroForm.getField("EffectiveDate");
  List widgetList = pdField.getWidgets();
  for (PDAnnotationWidget widget : widgetList) {
PDRectangle r = widget.getRectangle();
log.info(" - rectangle: llx={}, lly={}, w={}, h={}", r.getLowerLeftX(), 
r.getLowerLeftY(), r.getWidth(), r.getHeight());
  }

The "#0" is not a part of the actual field name, it's just a convention used by 
Acrobat to show that the field has more than one widgets. To access these 
widgets using PDFBox you can use the getKids method of PDField.

Hi Tillman,
Do you have an apache email address or another email address I can just send

Can you reopen the file you saved with PDFBox? If not, please open an issue in 
JIRA and attach your file.

If yes, just upload the file somewhere, I'd like to have a look at the

It is PDFBox that noticed a flaw in PDFBox and doing the closing itself :-)

It may have been solved recently. Wait a few days and use the 2.0 release.

RE: Strange "Save As" issue with Adobe Reader 11 / DC with PDF being encrypted by PDFBox 2 snapshot

[Stahle, Patrick]

Would you like the original pdf prior to my encrypting for comparison, and the 
simplest code sample I have? I can also upload that one too...

Also debugging through my code I noticed, what seemed like if I didn't use the 
initialization constructor my sets didn't change the value of the actual byte.

Ex.
AccessPermission apermission = new AccessPermission();
apermission.setCanPrint(true);
apermission.setCanModifyAnnotations(true);
apermission.setCanAssembleDocument(true);
apermission.setCanFillInForm(true);
apermission.setCanExtractForAccessibility(true);
apermission.setReadOnly();

Eclipse debugger shows: 
bytes= -4 
readOnly= true

while:
AccessPermission apermission = new AccessPermission(0);
apermission.setCanPrint(true);
apermission.setCanModifyAnnotations(true);
apermission.setCanAssembleDocument(true);
apermission.setCanFillInForm(true);
apermission.setCanExtractForAccessibility(true);
apermission.setReadOnly();

Eclipse debugger shows: 
bytes= 1828 
readOnly= true

Which looks correct to me, or least compares to what I see from iText (minus 
the readOnly bit).

Can you reopen the file you saved with PDFBox? If not, please open an issue in 
JIRA and attach your file.

If yes, just upload the file somewhere, I'd like to have a look at the

Re: Multiple instances of the same field name

[Gilad Denneboom]

The "#0" is not a part of the actual field name, it's just a convention
used by Acrobat to show that the field has more than one widgets. To access
these widgets using PDFBox you can use the getKids method of PDField.

So to detect the space between the 2 words "With" & "due" should I

What you're doing is to reinvent the PDFTextStripper code, which has 
some strategies to decide where there are spaces. That's not a bad idea 
(there are some weaknesses), however it is indeed... "tricky".

Re: Issues while writing Chinese content using contentStream.drawString

Hi,


Can anyone help me to write Chinese content into a PDF using PDFBox API?

I am referring to the suggestions mentioned in the JIRA

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1705

Kindly go through my comments (copy pasted again here) and advise on the
next steps;


Hi,

I am unable to write Chinese content into a PDF using your attached
EmbeddedFonts.java. Later I found way to fix it by feeding in the
"arialuni.ttf" instead of LiberationSans-Regular.ttf in your example. I had
confirmed the Chinese PDF generation by writing a hardcoded Chinese data in
my example. Later I had extended this piece of logic to write the desired
PDF in my application but got into "java.lang.IllegalArgumentException:
U+008A is not available in this font's encoding: WinAnsiEncoding". Please
advise.

1. From my application, i call an external Webservice and that returns the
Chinese + English content in response as a String,
2. I read this response string using UTF-8 as the Charset and unmarshal it
to Java bean using JAXRB.
3. To the contentStream.drawString() i passed the string calling the getter
method on the pojo which has Chinese data stored in a String variable. This
is where i am getting the above exception. Please help me to fix this.



I just did this: I took the embeddedfonts example, and added "中華人民共 
和國" to one of the lines. It worked fine. You mentioned that when you 
hardcoded something, it worked too.
Maybe something is not going well in the operations you're doing to 
create the string you are passing to drawString. That's what debugging 
and logging is for

That's not correct, spaces exist but in most cases pdf engines omit them and
replace spaces by a splitted text with an appropriate positioning.

BTW, latex uses the same strategy. Here is a excerpt from your pdf:

   [ (W) 55 (ith) -383 (due) -384 (r) 18 (egar) 18 (d) -383 (to) -383 (Article)
-384 (\(219\),) -416 (the) -384 (competent) -383 (authority) -383 (has) -384
(the) -383 (right) ] TJ

The text is in between the braces and the numbers are used for horizontal
positioning.

I have two questions.  I would like to display a .gif image into a pdf.  Can I

And in this piece of code, which I got form the internet:

   PDXObjectImage image = new PDJpeg(doc, new FileInputStream(imageName));

   content.drawImage(image, 200, 500)

   doc.save(fileName)
   doc.close();

the file path is in the web directory of my java project.  However when I run 
this, I get FileNotFoundException.  Any suggestions?


Better use PDPixelMap for gif files. Just read it into a BufferedImage 
with ImageIO.read().


The second problem ("file path is in the web directory of my java 
project") sounds like you're doing a tomcat project. 
"/images/arrow.gif"is wrong for sure, obviously your image isn't there, 
maybe "images/arrow.gif" would be correct, maybe not. Do this to find 
out where you are:


System.out.println (new File(".").getAbsolutePath());

then search where your image directory is relative to that.

I have two questions.  I would like to display a .gif image into a pdf.  Can I 
use PDJpeg class for .gif image?

And in this piece of code, which I got form the internet:

String imageName = "/images/arrow.gif;

  PDXObjectImage image = new PDJpeg(doc, new FileInputStream(imageName));
  PDPageContentStream content = new PDPageContentStream (doc, page)
  content.drawImage(image, 200, 500)
  content.close();

  doc.save(fileName)
  doc.close();

the file path is in the web directory of my java project.  However when I run 
this, I get FileNotFoundException.  Any suggestions?

Thank you
Diane

Re: Spaces are ignored when reading a PDF file

[Hesham G.]

Andreas,

That is very helpful.

I can get the x location of each character using TextPosition.getX(), ex:
W: 102.88399
i: 114.18165
t: 117.660614
h: 121.55801
d: 133.09477
u: 140.3994
e: 147.60838

So to detect the space between the 2 words "With" & "due" should I make 
subtraction calculations between X of the last letter(h) and the X of the 
first letter (d) and if the number is large than normal then this is a 
space? I think this way might be risky in the detection, or what?



Best regards ,
Hesham

That's not correct, spaces exist but in most cases pdf engines omit them and
replace spaces by a splitted text with an appropriate positioning.

BTW, latex uses the same strategy. Here is a excerpt from your pdf:

The text is in between the braces and the numbers are used for horizontal

Andreas,

You're absolutely right. I am testing it now, but it seems very complicated. 
I hope there might be another easier solution.

That's the short story. To decide what is normal could be quite tricky. You 
have

to take the following facts into account:

- different fonts have different widths (important if the font before the 
space

isn't the same than the font after the space)
- keep in mind that you have to take a scaling and sometimes a rotation into
account
- the "space" between characters may vary if the text is jusitified

There are certainly some other details which may be important as well, so 
that

you end up with some more or less heuristic.

Data from PDF - > MS Access

[Al Grant]

Hi All

This might be slightly OT - but the list was so helpful in the past...

I have a database in MS Access and a standalone Java applet that imports
data from a PDF form and scrapes data from the PDF form into corresponding
fields in the Access Database. (Thanks to the list for help on this!)

A report from this Access database then goes out via email to a handful of
people in other companies and they need a way to provide feedback into the
database.

The question is how to achieve this feedback?

It is difficult because the I am working within a number of constraints:

1. We are all working behind large corporate firewalls;
2. I have Office 2007 installed;
3. Our shared mailboxes are accessed only via a web interface (not OWA - I
think Lotus)

Getting ports on firewall, vpns etc is not an option, nor are cloud
services like Dropbox or Amazon, so I think I am stuck with email as the
transport medium.

Solutions?

Cheers

John,

I think I have got the idea ... Thumps up

Included message :

I’m rather confused by this thread, inferring spaces is one of the the main 
features of PDFTextStripper. I’m not sure why anyone is suggesting to process 
the text manually - there’s no need to do that. We do that already!

Looking at the original code the problem is right here:

> public class PDFTextStripperProcessor extends PDFTextStripper {
>@Override
>public void processTextPosition( TextPosition text )  {
>System.out.println( text.getCharacter() );
>}
> }

The processTextPosition method is used to pass an unprocessed TextPosition *in* 
to PDFTextStripper, but this override prevents that from happening, and is just 
printing the unprocessed token before PDFTextStripper has had a chance to do 
its job, such as inferring the missing spaces.

You should follow our PrintTextLocations.java example which shows you how to 
get the processed TextPositions from PDFTextStripper. It’s really easy to do.

Strange "Save As" issue with Adobe Reader 11 / DC with PDF being encrypted by PDFBox 2 snapshot

[Stahle, Patrick]

Hi,

This is not a general problem and only occurs with original PDF generated with 
3D content using Anark. The file when loaded seems to have encrypted and loads 
just find in Adobe Reader, but when we try to do a "Save As" we get the 
following error:
"The document could not be saved. There was a problem reading this document 21."

If I do a control click on the "ok" button. I get the following message:
"This direct object already has a container."

Any ideas what might be causing this problem? We have tried the same thing with 
iText and it does not experience this problem.

Sample Code that reproduces the problem:
PDDocument doc = null;

try {
doc = PDDocument.load(pdfIn);
PDPage page = null;
AccessPermission apermission = 
new AccessPermission();

apermission.setCanAssembleDocument(false);

apermission.setCanExtractContent(false);

apermission.setCanExtractForAccessibility(true);

apermission.setCanFillInForm(true);

apermission.setCanModifyAnnotations(true);
apermission.setCanPrint(true);
apermission.setReadOnly();
StandardProtectionPolicy spp = 
new StandardProtectionPolicy(UUID.randomUUID().toString(), "", apermission);
doc.protect(spp);

for (int i = 0; i < 
doc.getNumberOfPages(); i++) {
page = 
doc.getPage(i);

PDPageContentStream canvas = new PDPageContentStream(doc, page, 
PDPageContentStream.AppendMode.APPEND, true, true);

canvas.saveGraphicsState();

canvas.restoreGraphicsState();
canvas.close();
}
doc.save(pdfOut);
bRet = true;
}
finally {
if (doc != null) {
doc.close();
}
}

Thanks,
Patrick

Thanks Ken.

Yes that's the only way I can see so far.

There is a good outlook connector called moyosoft but it does cost about
$200

The field itself might be called CompanyXYZ Ave the data type longstring.

I will also need record number in the email to update the correct record.

Re: Spaces are ignored when reading a PDF file

[Frank van der Hulst]

Spaces don't exist as characters in PDFs. To identify spaces, you have to
compare the X coordinates of adjacent characters against their widths.

The link is hard for me to test since I have to do this all from my phone. If 
it says not found or expired try putting in 381906 from the download page...

Hi Tillman,
Do you have an apache email address or another email address I can just send 
the pdf to you? This MoveIt site would requires me to have an sending email

Can you reopen the file you saved with PDFBox? If not, please open an issue in 
JIRA and attach your file.

If yes, just upload the file somewhere, I'd like to have a look at the 
encryption dictionaries.

Spaces are ignored when reading a PDF file

[Hesham G.]

Hello ,

I have a PDF file created using Latex. I am trying to read and print all 
letters in that file using PDFBox, but when doing this all spaces in that file 
are ignored. Here is the code I am using:
PDPage page = (PDPage)allPages.get( 0 );
PDStream contents = page.getContents();
if ( contents != null ) {
PDFTextStripperProcessor pdfTextStripperProcessor = new 
PDFTextStripperProcessor();
pdfTextStripperProcessor.processStream( page, page.findResources(), 
contents.getStream() );
}

public class PDFTextStripperProcessor extends PDFTextStripper {
@Override
public void processTextPosition( TextPosition text )  {
System.out.println( text.getCharacter() );
}
}

And you can check a one page file sample here to test it:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/10111483/downloads/pdfbox/pdf_latex_spaces_ignored.pdf

What is the cause of this issue please?


Best regards ,
Hesham

pdfrenderer unicode characters in latest 2.1.0-SNAPSHOT ?

[Jesse Kuhnert]

It appears as if the java2d font rendering logic in new 2.x versions missed
something with unicode support. I have pdfs being output wonderfully with
my sample unicode text (bengali in this case) but when we try to produce
images any glyphs we have which aren't english appear to just be rendered
as "blank" somehow. (meaning the spacing and line heights look like there
is ghost text taking up space there but maybe that's just our logic for
laying out pdf)

Has anyone else tried to produce unicode based pdf images yet ?

You don’t want to do that though, because Java doesn’t handle landscape sized 
paper correctly. So it’s necessary to always print in portrait, rotating any 
landscape pages first, and flagging them as being landscape.

Re: Spaces are ignored when reading a PDF file

[Hesham G.]

Clovis,

Thanks a lot :)

I will have to follow this solution if there is no alternative. The problem 
is that if I am extracting text of 500 or 600 pages PDF, that will consume 
much additional memory and time. In addition I guess it's only a special 
case for latex books only.


Best regards ,
Hesham


Included message :


just an idea from whom is not fluent in pdfbox nor PDF.
if you just want to know there is a space in between the letters and not
the amount of spaces, you can use your code to get character details and
then use extractText to get the words.

2016-03-17 7:20 GMT-03:00 Hesham G. :


Andreas,

That is very helpful.

I can get the x location of each character using TextPosition.getX(), ex:
W: 102.88399
i: 114.18165
t: 117.660614
h: 121.55801
d: 133.09477
u: 140.3994
e: 147.60838

So to detect the space between the 2 words "With" & "due" should I make
subtraction calculations between X of the last letter(h) and the X of the
first letter (d) and if the number is large than normal then this is a
space? I think this way might be risky in the detection, or what?


Best regards ,
Hesham

That's not correct, spaces exist but in most cases pdf engines omit them
and
replace spaces by a splitted text with an appropriate positioning.

BTW, latex uses the same strategy. Here is a excerpt from your pdf:

  [ (W) 55 (ith) -383 (due) -384 (r) 18 (egar) 18 (d) -383 (to) -383
(Article)
-384 (\(219\),) -416 (the) -384 (competent) -383 (authority) -383 (has)
-384
(the) -383 (right) ] TJ

The text is in between the braces and the numbers are used for horizontal
positioning.

Re: Overlaying PDFs > 1.4 fails & Hyperlinks are not clickable in overlays

[Anna Taracha]

Thank you for fixing this issue. I just tested the newest trunk and 
overlaying PDFs having XRef streams works great :)

You can find the original PDF file and the overlay PDF file here:

http://www.elisanet.fi/jakorasia/ANNA/doc.pdf (original PDF)
http://www.elisanet.fi/jakorasia/ANNA/wm.pdf (overlay file)


None of them is a PDFA file. They have many other errors beside the XRef
streams, although these can be fixed.
I've fixed the issue with the xref stream in the current trunk, see 
PDFBX-3263.


Apparently there is another problem with overlays, Andreas just 
reopened a

closed issue because of that.
The changes from the reopened issue weren't the reason for the 
problem. I've opened another ticket and fixed the issue in the current

They both have XRef streams and do not have parameter errors 
(according to
3-Heights™ PDF Validator Online Tool). They are based on version 
1.5. The

result file has parameter error so something strange happens during
overlaying. As all the files are based on version 1.5, they should 
be allowed

to have XRef streams which was introduced in version 1.5. Preflight can
validate only PDF/A-1b which is based on version 1.4 so I can't use 
it to

validate PDFs 1.5 fully.

However, your suggested code did the trick and now my PDF files are 
valid. I
guess there is something wrong with XRef stream after overlaying. I 
will use

your code as a workaround for now, so thank you for it :)

Yes, I was asking, if clickable hyperlinks in overlays will be 
possible in a
future release (you would create a similar feature that I did)? I am 
just

curious, if it is something that will/could be considered.


I can't answer that because I have no opinion, I've never used that 
overlay
feature. I assume you mean transferring annotations that are in the 
overlay
file. Isn't this something that can also be done by just adding the 
annotation
to the page annotation list? What would happen if both pages have 
different sizes?


But feel free to share any code you have. We have committed many user
suggestions, but not every suggestion gets committed. If it is 
refused or

ignored, just keep trying and come back with more new ideas :-)

You need to isolate the problem, you’ve got too many variables to make any

RE: Strange "Save As" issue with Adobe Reader 11 / DC with PDF being encrypted by PDFBox 2 snapshot

[Stahle, Patrick]

PDFBox opens the file fine

Code:
PDDocument doc = null;

try {
doc = PDDocument.load(pdfIn);
PDPage page = null;

for (int i = 0; i < doc.getNumberOfPages(); i++) {
page = doc.getPage(i);
PDPageContentStream canvas = new 
PDPageContentStream(doc, page, PDPageContentStream.AppendMode.APPEND, true, 
true);
canvas.saveGraphicsState();
canvas.restoreGraphicsState();
canvas.close();
}
bRet = true;
}
finally {
if (doc != null) {
doc.close();
}
}

Output:

Also other applications like PDF Exchange do not exhibit the problem. Most 
likely has something to do with the 3D capabilities of Adobe Reader

Can you reopen the file you saved with PDFBox? If not, please open an issue in 
JIRA and attach your file.

If yes, just upload the file somewhere, I'd like to have a look at the 
encryption dictionaries.

Would you like the original pdf prior to my encrypting for comparison, and the 
simplest code sample I have? I can also upload that one too...

Also debugging through my code I noticed, what seemed like if I didn't use the 
initialization constructor my sets didn't change the value of the actual byte.

Ex.
AccessPermission apermission = new AccessPermission();
apermission.setCanPrint(true);
apermission.setCanModifyAnnotations(true);
apermission.setCanAssembleDocument(true);
apermission.setCanFillInForm(true);
apermission.setCanExtractForAccessibility(true);
apermission.setReadOnly();

Eclipse debugger shows: 
bytes= -4 
readOnly= true

while:
AccessPermission apermission = new AccessPermission(0);
apermission.setCanPrint(true);
apermission.setCanModifyAnnotations(true);
apermission.setCanAssembleDocument(true);
apermission.setCanFillInForm(true);
apermission.setCanExtractForAccessibility(true);
apermission.setReadOnly();

Eclipse debugger shows: 
bytes= 1828 
readOnly= true

Which looks correct to me, or least compares to what I see from iText (minus 
the readOnly bit).

Thanks, it worked. I did find some weirdness: parts of the encryption object 
exists twice.

Re: pdfrenderer unicode characters in latest 2.1.0-SNAPSHOT ?

[Jesse Kuhnert]

Yeah that one worked fine for me too it just doesn't in the slightly more
elaborate situation we are rendering stuff in . Though the actual pdf is
rendered perfectly. Meh ok sorry I don't have a more definitive idea why it
isn't working in our real product code vs smaller debug examples where it
works fine. I'll file a bug report if I ever find anything .

That's the jpedal plugin. We tried to use that one a few years ago and

wondering why you haven't opened an issue on their site, re the deadlock

NullPointerException in multithreading

[Tilman Hausherr]

Hello 风云天空,

This is obviously not related to "Spaces are ignored when reading a PDF 
file" so you should have created a new subject line instead of hijacking 
an existing thread by pressing "reply".


I did have the same problem while working on
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3267

What I did was to change the source code of PDICCBased.java, i.e. change 
this line


awtColorSpace = (ICC_ColorSpace)ColorSpace.getInstance(ColorSpace.CS_sRGB);


to

synchronized(LOG)
 {
   awtColorSpace = 
(ICC_ColorSpace)ColorSpace.getInstance(ColorSpace.CS_sRGB);

}


This is a java bug. I'm undecided whether the change above should be 
committed. But try the change :-)


Tilman
