Hello,
In the XREF section, with generation values greater than 65535 (2¹⁶) the parsing process fails because it expects u16 but the value does not fit. This is very unlikely to happen but I found many PDF generated with this poblem (I attach one example).
In all cases, just ignoring these entries was a valid solution and this is why I just changed the process at parsing level allowing u32 and then converting it to u16 so everything else runs as before.
With this simple change the library is a little more robust by not failing at these weird cases.
