[jira] [Closed] (PDFBOX-8) alternate header form

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-8?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

John Hewson closed PDFBOX-8.
----------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

Given that we've never encountered a PDF like this, I'm going to close this issue. Anybody with an actual PDF to attach is welcome to re-open it.

Good call - DO NOT support this.

There is a long history as to why this was introduced at the time and
there are no documents in the wild that ever used it.
