[jira] [Comment Edited] (PDFBOX-3026) Acrobat Reader 7.0 cannot
open created files
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3026?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14961076#comment-14961076 ]

I can also use Acrobat Reader XI to make a small change OR actually downgrade the generated file to a 1.5 (Acrobat 6) PDF, save it, and in either case we can read it with Reader 7.

I assume you mean Acrobat Pro. Could you please "downgrade" the file PDFA-XRefUncompressedLastAdded.pdf and attach the saved file here? My intent is to find out what Acrobat 7 expects when reading an XRef stream.

> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Writing
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0
> Reporter: Kevin Ternes
> Attachments: PDFA-XRefUncompressedLastAdded.pdf, PDFA.pdf, Reader7OpenMessage.png, load-NoForm-saved-XRefUncompressedLastAdded.pdf, load-NoForm.pdf, load.pdf, save-NoForm.pdf, save.pdf

> _Note: This issue is not observed with PDFBox 1.8.10._
> _Note: This is observed with recent 2.0.0 builds including 2.0.0-20151013.171100-1760_
> A file created by PDFBox can be opened by Reader X and XI. But it cannot be opened by Reader 7.
> For instance, given a file, load.pdf, which can be opened by Reader 7, run the following:
> {code:java}
> public class PDFBoxRunLoadSave {
> public static void main(String[] args) {
> PDDocument pdDocument = null;
> try {
> pdDocument = PDDocument.load(new File("load.pdf"));
> pdDocument.save("save.pdf");
> } catch (Exception ex) {
> System.err.println("Caught " + ex);
> ex.printStackTrace();
> } finally {
> try { pdDocument.close(); } catch (Exception ex) {
> System.out.println("Closing, caught " + ex);
> }
> }
> }
> }{code}
> The file, save.pdf, will be generated which can be opened by Reader X but Reader 7 will respond with a popup message, "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." (See attached screenshot).
> This is consistently observed testing with a large number of sample files on 3 Windows 7 SP1 64-bit workstations and 1 Windows 10 workstation.
