[opencms-dev] Adobe 9 and pdfBox

[Graeme Kidd]

Hi,

It appears this is a known issue that appeared in PDFBOX before version 0.8 (OpenCms uses 0.7.2):
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-361

You could try and download the latest version of PDFBOX (1.5.0) from here:
http://pdfbox.apache.org/download.html

However I am not sure how much the PDFBOX API has changed so it may be that this version is not supported by OpenCms 7.

Graeme
