Tilman,
The code I tried is:
byte[] bytes = // content of file as a byte array
PDDocument pdDocument = PDDocument.load( bytes );
PDDocumentCatalog cat2 = pdDocument.getDocumentCatalog();
PDPageLabels pageLabels = cat2.getPageLabels();
if ( pageLabels == null ) {
System.out.println( "Page labels missing " );
}
I'm getting "Page labels missing" on each document.
Then lets go back to the beginning. You mentioned "I've got page numbers
like "TOC-1", "TOC-2", "Page 1"". Where did these show up?

I have no idea of, or control over the process used to convert a Word file
into a PDF. I just inherited a bunch of PDFs that I'm trying to interpret.

Alas, after testing with my documents, the PageLabels is null. :-(
But you said it has "TOC-1". This sounds like pagelabels. You can also try
with PDFDebugger, it will show the labels if there are some.
Tilman
Thank you for the help and encouragement.

Tilman,
Thank you very much. (I feel bad asking some of the questions, but the
data
is stored in "out of the way" corners that are hard to find.
Don't :-)
Is there any documentation that explains how the linkages work? Would it
help to have the PDF Standard Document?
Yes. I read there all the time. The PDFBox API closely follows the PDF
specification. So here it's linked from the document catalog, so the
methods used are in the PDDocumentCatalog class. But asking was a good
decision as this got you that convenience method (that is in
PDFDebugger).
Tilman
Thanks.

I've now got my code working to iterate through a PDDocument and

it
page by page.
Next hurdle: Is there a way to get the page number as printed? I've
got
page numbers like "TOC-1", "TOC-2", "Page 1", ...
How much work is it to get the "TOC-1"?
Thanks.
