            Description

            A ICEpdf users reported an error opening the PDF file attached to the form (2_pdfsam_52313.pdf). I've taken a quick look at the problem but didn't find any immediate cause. The stream being loaded is a child of a Object Stream which might mean an offset error. Further analysis is needed.

                Another sample came in that has a similar problem. So I dug a little deeper and tried out a few other zip libraries that are out there. Unfortunately they all failed when decoding the streams in question. However they do give more information as to where the error is coming from. jzlib-1.1.1 seemed to point to a missing footer table which will be helpful when reading about how zip streams are encoded.

                We can't sub in a new zip engine on a minor release but with a little luck can fix this with an open source library and or figure out at way to add a footer to the stream. Doing some performance analysis would also be good to see which library if any is more efficient.

                Fix Version/s: 4.3.4
                (was: 4.5)
                Resolution: Fixed
                It looks like there is a long running bug with the InflaterInputStream were it will thought he EOF error under very special circumstances. The good news is that this exception can be caught and the result of the decoded stream can be kept.
