<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi<br>
<br>
I have also encountered similar issues with PDFs from other
Windows softwares.<br>
The workaround I use is to recreate the PDF in any available
software which ignores missing EOFs, endstreams etc.<br>
Programmatically, this can be done as described in

<div>Hi all,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm currently working on a map viewer application that uses
GDAL for processing geo-referenced map images. Up till now
I've been successfully using the poppler library for PDF
support, but am currently trying to shift to the
podofo/poppler hybrid approach (podofo library with poppler
pdftoppm utility) to work around poppler's GPL licence
restrictions.
<br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have a collection of sample map PDF documents generated
by ESRI ArcMap 10 (different documents from different releases
in the 10.x release family), which I could successfully
process with GDAL/poppler, but most of which fail to load with
GDAL/podofo. The document loading also fails with the
stand-alone podofo pdftoppm utility, both with a version that
I've built from podofo 0.9.6 source and with the 0.9.3 version
installed onto my ubuntu xenial machine from the APT package
repository.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The typical error message is as follows:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<div><br>
</div>
Error: An error 5 ocurred during uncompressing the pdf file.<br>
<br>
<br>
PoDoFo encounter an error. Error: 5 ePdfError_UnexpectedEOF<br>

</div>
<div>I don't think this is a podofo bug as such, as various
online pdf validators I've tried also flag the documents as
problematic, but several other bits of pdf software I've tried
(notably the poppler library utilities) seem to treat it as a
non-fatal recoverable error. <br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Has anyone else come across this and come up with a
work-around or fix? <br>
