Hello, I've fixed it in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-6257 although I'm not really happy with it (ChatGPT claims it is case sensitive but we all know that ChatGPT is very persuasive even if it lies) but I looked at my comments from last time, so I did it anyway. Please build from source and test your file and tell us whether it worked.
