Interesting!
That version throws an error:
class java.lang.String cannot be cast to class java.lang.Integer 
(java.lang.String and java.lang.Integer are in module java.base of loader 
'bootstrap')

at Overlay.java, line 132.

I wonder if there's something fundamentally problematic about data types in the 
Lucee part and the non-verbose version just ignores it and throws its hands up 
and says "no"?

Got it. Thanks Tilman!
Will let you know if I manage to figure out how to see the debug! 🙂

Hi,

Use this version:
https://repository.apache.org/content/groups/snapshots/org/apache/pdfbox/pdfbox-app/3.0.6-SNAPSHOT/pdfbox-app-3.0.6-20250711.072333-59.jar

please tell when you've downloaded it so that revert these changes.
