Andreas Lehmkühler closed PDFBOX-4049.
--------------------------------------
Resolution: Duplicate
The garbage at the beginning of the PDF is the root cause for the issue. PDFBox
realizes that all offsets are bad and triggers a brute force search. As the pdf
uses compressed and encrypted streams the brute force mechanism isn't able to
repair the pdf, see PDFBOX-4097.
You should ensure that such garbage is removed before parsing the file to avoid
the repair mechanism.
