FIRST

This is the file that causes the exception.

Notes: I drew a "header" selection around the heading at the top of the document, and also ignored the introductory text on the first page. I also draw boxes around the two vector images which are simply empty rectangles on two separate pages. I suspect the error occurs without these two actions, however.

I'm wrong about the error occurring without the actions mentioned in comment #2. The header selection is not important; but if you don't do the image rasterization process on pages 2 and 3, the error does not occur.

Reason for Bug 3877: generateXML() in FillInTheBlankResponseItem.java

while(condition1) {
while(condition2) // condition1 violation is not caught here!
// resulted in stringOutOfBound access! {}
}

Fix: Simple modification to the inside while() to check for cond1 && cond2 resolved the issue!

The violation is only caught when the "blank" appears at the end of the question text! When the image corresponding to question 2 is not scanned explicitly by the user, the last blank is not at the end of the question text. e.g.,
