Description

I have a pdf that has the following

1 0 obj^M
<</Type/Catalog/Pages 5 0 R/Metadata 8 0 R/AcroForm<</Fields[]>>>>^M

and

22 0 obj^M
<</Type /ObjStm /N 2/First 10/Length 175/Filter /FlateDecode>>stream^M

Inside the 22 0 obj is the 5 0 which holds the pages. When 1 0obj is parsed then a place holder is set for the 5 0Obj with it's value set to null. When 22 0 is parsed it is not expanded so 5 0 is always null.

When I go to get all the pages

document.getDocumentCatalog().getAllPages() it returns 0 since

(COSDictionary)root.getDictionaryObject( COSName.PAGES ) is null.

Should ObjStm not get processed immediately so the objects tha are in there are filled?

I have a pdf as an example but it is confidential so I can send it someone off list
