Hello,

I tried to reproduce this behaviour without success with the current HEAD
revision.
how many files are encountering to this problem? Have they some
specificities? (If it is possible to share one of them, it will be useful)

Any information about JDK version and PDFBox version may help.

BR,
Eric
