Hmm, I don't think so.

I haven't yet had time to look at the PDFBOX-616 problem in detail.
Perhaps some of the other developers has ideas about this?

Jukka,

        Did you say that issue # 616 
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-616)
might be fixed in this version, under some other problem title?

    I did not see another issue on the release list that sounded similar.

                                Thanks, Alan
