             Summary: PDFBox creates files with EBCDIC code on z/OS
                 Key: PDFBOX-2837
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-2837
             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Writing
    Affects Versions: 1.8.9, 1.8.10, 2.0.0
         Environment: OS: Unix Service running on Z/OS.
JRE: JRE 1.6.0 IBM J9 2.4 z/OS s390-31 
            Reporter: Tilman Hausherr
            Assignee: Tilman Hausherr


A PDF file created on z/OS (an IBM mainframe os) has this
{code}
xref
ð ù
0000000000 65535 f
{code}
the two chars are EBCDIC code for 0 9. The cause is this code that outputs in the system default encoding:
{code}
    private void writeXrefRange(long x, long y) throws IOException
    {
        getStandardOutput().write(String.valueOf(x).getBytes());
        getStandardOutput().write(SPACE);
        getStandardOutput().write(String.valueOf(y).getBytes());
        getStandardOutput().writeEOL();
    } 
{code}
getBytes should use the specific charset, e.g. getBytes(Charsets.ISO_8859_1).
