Problem displaying PDFBox 2.0RC3 document in Acrobat Reader
A document generated using PDFBox 2.0.0-RC3 cannot be read fully by the latest version of Adobe Acrobat Reader, which says "An error exists on this page. Acrobat may not display the page correctly. Please contact the person who created the PDF document to correct the problem." The identical document created using PDFBox 1.8.11 reads in Acrobat Reader just fine. After using Acrobat Pro to increase the width of the bounding box around the first page text "Can this amount change after closing?", the rest of the text on the page showed up. The same problem showed up with other text on the following pages. Both documents read and display properly using PDFBox PDFDebugger.
www.pdf-tools.com/pdf/validate-pdfa-online.aspx says the differences between the 1.8.11 analysis and the 2.0.0-RC3 analysis are:
The key Type is required but missing. (2)
The operator has an invalid number of operands. (5)
The document doesn't conform to the PDF reference (missing required entries, wrong value types, etc.)
The font being used is PDType1Font.HELVETICA. The code being used to print the text is straightforward:
try {
// position is offset from the bottom left corner of the page
pdContent.beginText();
// (the font is set in a prior .font() call)
// 1/2016 1.x: pdContent.moveTextPositionByAmount(points(dHoriz), posY(dVert));
pdContent.newLineAtOffset(points(dHoriz), posY(dVert));
// 1/2016: pdContent.drawString(textOrCallback.toString());
pdContent.showText(textOrCallback.toString());
pdContent.endText();
}
catch (IOException ioe) {
// (unlikely)
throw new RuntimeException(ioe);
}
We substituted the (deprecated) .drawString() for .showText() with the same error result.
The 1.8.11 and 2.0.0-RC3 documents can be retrieved at:

I most probably found the cause of the other problem as well. Everywhere
where there's an "sc" command, I added
/DeviceRGB cs
just before. Now it passes the PDF-Tools test and is displayed by Adobe
Reader.
I suspect that this was fixed yesterday, but I'm not sure.
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?rev=1731092&view=rev
Could you please retest your application with a current snapshot?

I see one difference that was fixed just a few hours ago. (PDFBOX-3240)
That is the "The key Type is required but missing" problem.
I fixed that manually but it isn't enough. Next thing is to find out why
the "The operator has an invalid number of operands. (5)".
