Re: Downloadind a pdf file doesn't work

This sounds more like a http problem. Try setting a user agent like a 
browser.

Hi all,

  

I have the following situation:

  

I am loading with PdfBox files from the internet with the call

PDDocument document = PDDocument.load( inputStream );

  

So far it has worked nicely, but I have problems with this file :
http://esa.un.org/unpd/wup/PressRelease/WUP2014_PressRelease.pdf

  

After I load it, it is empty, and the call document.getNumberOfPages()
returns 0.

However when I download the file manually and then load it into PdfBox, then
everything is fine.

  

Any idea what could be happening? I am currently using PdfBox 1.8.5.

  

Thanks and Best Regards

Walter
