I get this ClassCastException in OpenPDF version 1.3.27:

hi Andreas, would you have a pdf to test? Looks like a sort error in the pdf itself which needs to be catched.

I have such as a PDF file to reproduce this problem, can you please send me an email to andreas.rosdal AT gmail.com and I will share the PDF file with you. Thank you.
