Hello colleagues. Since a month or two I've started using PDF Box to read PDF files received from a scanner. Recently some of the users started receiving this error:
> java.lang.RuntimeException: EOL encountered in black run. > at > org.apache.pdfbox.filter.TIFFFaxDecoder.decodeNextScanline(TIFFFaxDecoder.java:677) > at org.apache.pdfbox.filter.TIFFFaxDecoder.decode2D(TIFFFaxDecoder.java:766) > at > org.apache.pdfbox.filter.CCITTFaxDecodeFilter.decode(CCITTFaxDecodeFilter.java:120) > at org.apache.pdfbox.cos.COSStream.doDecode(COSStream.java:295) > at org.apache.pdfbox.cos.COSStream.doDecode(COSStream.java:237) > at org.apache.pdfbox.cos.COSStream.getUnfilteredStream(COSStream.java:172) > at > org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.graphics.xobject.PDCcitt.getRGBImage(PDCcitt.java:155) Opening the same file with evince yields: > Syntax Error (40958): Missing 'endstream' or incorrect stream length But the file still displays and the image content is visible. The files that exhibit this problem have sensitive information, and I don't feel comfortable sharing those. However if anyone of the developers needs a sample I can probably provide one off-list. Please advise.
