Hi Ken, The problem *seems* to be limited to those documents created by Acrobat 9. (PDF version 1.5 versus version 1.4) That is, 1.4 documents translate OK, where 1.5 documents get this error.
If it matters, the bad file can be opened OK with Acrobat Reader. Any ideas on how to debug this? Or is Acrobat 9 (version 1.5) a known problem for Tika?
