Hi, one thing you can test is using the NonSequentialParser for parsing the source files. Unfortunately the PDFMergerUtility doesn't yet allow using that parser. So you would need to take the source and change PDDocument.load to PDDocument.loadNonSeq. Is that an option for you?
You may want to raise an issue in Jira ((https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX) so the issue is not forgotten With kind regards Maruan Sahyoun Am 06.02.2013 um 16:37 schrieb "Huber, Michael" <[email protected]>: > Hi, > > same problem with pdfbox-app PDFMerger cmd line utility. > > Java -version output: > java version "1.6.0_21" > Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_21-b07) > Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 17.0-b17, mixed mode) > > Cmd line used: > java -jar pdfbox-app-1.7.1.jar PDFMerger c:\temp\1.pdf c:\temp\2.pdf > c:\temp\m.pdf > > If You need the files pls let me know. > > THX for help, > > Michael > > > Von: Huber, Michael > Gesendet: Mittwoch, 6.
