----------------------------------------------

Hello. I'm facing the same issue.

I have tryied changing a local copy of pdfbox sources, line 165 in ./pdfbox/src/main/java/org/apache/pdfbox/pdmodel/common/PDNumberTreeNode.java: 
{{COSObjectable pdValue = convertCOSToPD( cosValue );}}
for
{{COSObjectable pdValue = (COSObjectable)  cosValue ;}}

That solved the issue in my case (the node contained a reference, maybe it fails with an array of references?)

> When creating a pdf I am setting a PDAnnotation as the referenced object of a PDObjectReference using setReferencedObject.
> When I subsequently load the same document and then call getReferencedObject on the PDObjectReference, null is returned. This is because an exception is thrown in PDXObject.createXObject (called inside getReferencedObject) as the referenced object is not a COSStream, just a COSDictionary.
