i got it to work. my first mistake was that the subtype is Ink not InkList.

it shows the drawing now. however, the issue is that the points are
scattered and not interconnected. I expected pdfbox to link the points so
they would be displayed as one continuous drawing.

any idea on what might be lacking? perhaps a COSName?


I can't comment much without looking at your PDF (upload it somewhere). When I wrote "an array of arrays", I mean this from the PDF specification:

"An array of n arrays, each representing a stroked path. Each array shall be a series of alternating horizontal and vertical coordinates in default user space, specifying points along the path. When drawn, the points shall be connected by straight lines or curves in an implementation-dependent way."

Maybe you put one coordinate pair in one array, instead of all points of a line in one array?

"Array of arrays" means that if you have only one path with 8 points, then you have one array with one element, this element is an array with 16 numbers. To see how an inklist is, open the file from PDFBOX-2583 in PDFDebugger.
