For non-encrypted files, determinstic ID generation uses file contents
instead of timestamp and file name. At a small runtime cost, this
enables generation of the same /ID if the same inputs are converted in
the same way multiple times.
fix-qdf was previously hard-coding the number of bytes for the f2
field of the xref stream entry. This addresses issue #37. Thanks
aluebcke for reporting.
As reported in issue #40, a call to CryptAcquireContext in
SecureRandomDataProvider fails in a fresh windows install prior to any
user keys being created in AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA.
Thanks michalrames.
There have been a few enhancements requested that only affect the qpdf
command line tool and that should be relatively quick to implement.
Work out the details and acknowledge these publicly in the TODO file.
Pushing inherited objects to pages and getting all pages were both
prone to stack overflow infinite loops if there were loops in the
Pages dictionary. There is a general weakness in the code in that any
part of the code that traverses the Pages structure would be prone to
this and would have to implement its own loop detection. A more robust
fix may provide some general method for handling the Pages structure,
but it's probably not worth doing.
Note: addition of *Internal2 private functions was done rather than
changing signatures of existing methods to avoid breaking
compatibility.
Converting a password to an encryption key is supposed to copy up to a
certain number of bytes from a digest. Make sure never to copy more
than the size of the digest.
When checking two objects preceding R while parsing, ensure that the
objects are direct. This avoids stuff like 1 0 obj containing 1 0 R 0 R
from causing an infinite loop in object resolution.

The PDF specification says that the /Type key for nodes in the pages
dictionary (both /Page and /Pages) is required, but some PDF files
omit them. Use the presence of other keys to determine the type of
pages tree node this is if the type key is not found.
QPDFWriter was trying to make /Filter and /DecodeParms direct in all
cases, but there are some cases where /DecodeParms may refer to a
stream, which can't be direct. QPDFWriter doesn't actually need
/DecodeParms to be direct in that case because it won't be able to
filter the stream. Until we can handle this type of stream, just don't
make /Filter and /DecodeParms direct if we can't filter the stream
anyway.
Fixes #34
Fix problem: if the last object in the first part of a linearized file
had an offset that was below 65536 by less than the size of the hint
stream, the xref stream was invalid and the resulting file is not
usable.
Add new RandomDataProvider object and implement existing random number
generation in terms of that. This enables end users to supply their
own random data providers.
If NO_GET_ENVIRONMENT is #defined at compile time on Windows, do not
call GetEnvironmentVariable. QUtil::get_env will always return
false. This option is not available through configure. This was
added to support a specific user's requirements to avoid calling
GetEnvironmentVariable from the Windows API. Nothing in qpdf outside
the test coverage system in qtest relies on QUtil::get_env.
In compare image tests, use the gs device tiff24nc instead of tiff12nc
since the 4 bit per sample images created by tiff12nc could sometimes
trigger a bug in tiffcmp. Fixes #20.
Ideally, the library should never call assert outside of test code,
but it does in several places. For some cases where the assertion
might conceivably fail because of a problem with the input data,
replace assertions with exceptions so that they can be trapped by the
calling application. This commit surely misses some cases and
replaced some cases unnecessarily, but it should still be an
improvement.
