> 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).
