If you have a look at https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14337 
you'll find a PDF that has a name of more than 127 characters, that is the 
most we parse because it's an "Implementation limit" as specified in Appendix 
C of the specification.

Although, if you open the said file with acroread, it works.

So i suggest to apply the following patch effectively doubling the max 
characters we accept as name length.

Comments?
