             Project: PDFBox
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: Parsing
    Affects Versions: 2.0.9
            Reporter: Alexandre


Hi Apache contributors,

Suppose I have a very big pdf file and I want to split this file into file chunks. I cannot load the entire file into memory and I cannot use the hard disk of the computer... too bad :(.

I read that it is not possible to get in-order pages from a stream, but it is feasible to load random pages if you read line by line and look for page breaks. 

Is this implemented in pdfbox?

Hagd, A.
