I ran into the same problem. Swapped from 1.7.1 to 1.8.0 and then started to get corrupt pdf files from pdfbox. But I was not sure whether it is caused by pdfbox 1.8.0 or my little custom changes that I made to source codes (same as I did to 1.7.1). (hadn't time to check that yet)
Now it seems that there is some bug in 1.8.0 if other users have the same problem.

I then ran the code against the combined document. The resulting new171-CombinedLoremIpsum.pdf opens without error. http://ceratopsian.net/pdf/new171-CombinedLoremIpsum.pdf Looks like there may be an issue with pdfbox-1.8.0.
