cfpdf action="getinfo" does not return PageRotations or PageSizes properties

Description

There is an incompatibility between Lucee and Adobe ColdFusion with cfpdf(action="getInfo");

In ACF, the returned struct includes the following properties:

PageRotations - an array of rototion values of 0, 90, 180, 270 for each page in the PDF
PageSizes - an array of structs with width and height values for each page in the PDF (taken from TrimBox)

In Lucee, the PageRotations and PageSizes properties are not returned at all.

I've checked and added a features of Page Sizes and PageRotations for cfpdf if action="getinfo".

For the benefit of others stumbling upon this issue I will provide the work-around code to leverage the PDFBox 2.0.16 library.

// VARIABLES TO HOLD THE RESULTS
PageRotations = ArrayNew(1);
PageSizes = ArrayNew(1);

// OPEN THE PDF USING APACHE PDFBox LIBRARY
objPDDocument = CreateObject("java", "org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDDocument").load(FileReadBinary(ARGUMENTS.Source));

// DETERMINE THE NUMBER OF PAGES
NoOfPages = objPDDocument.getNumberOfPages();

// GET THE PAGES
objPages = objPDDocument.getDocumentCatalog().getPages();

// GET PAGE ITERATOR
objPageIterator = objPages.iterator();

// LOOP OVER THE PAGES
ThisPageNo = 0;
while (objPageIterator.hasNext()) {
	// GET THE NEXT PAGE
	objPage = objPageIterator.next();
	
	// TRACK WHICH PAGE WE ARE PROCESSING
	ThisPageNo += 1;
	
	// DETERMINE THE PAGE ROTATION
	PageRotations[ThisPageNo] = objPage.getRotation();
	
	// DETERMINE THE PAGE SIZE
	PageSizes[ThisPageNo] = {
		"width" = objPage.getTrimBox().getWidth(),
		"height" = objPage.getTrimBox().getHeight()
	};
}

// ALWAYS CLOSE THE FILE
objPDDocument.close();
