Description

Using pdfbox 1.8.3 I get a NullPointerException in PDPageContentStream.setFont (java.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.edit.PDPageContentStream.setFont(PDPageContentStream.java:322).

I create a new "PDPageContentStream" object with "resetContext = true". In the constructor of PDPageContentStream the variable "resources" gets initialized. As a result of "resetContext = true" PDPageContentStream::close is called. In the "close" method now "resources" gets null. A following call to "PDPageContentStream::setFont" fails because resources is null.
