I am trying to create a multipage PDF file on Android, using PDFDocument. After creating a new page (method newPDFPage()) the next following line, for example canvas.drawLine(start, position, finish, position, paint); causes the app to crash with no reference to a line in code.
Error: Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV), code 1 (SEGV_MAPERR), fault addr 0x12
@TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT)
public void newPDFPage() {
document.finishPage(page);
pageInfo = new PdfDocument.PageInfo.Builder(595, 842, 1).create();
page = document.startPage(pageInfo);
position = titleBaseLine;
}
It does not crash every time, and occurs at random (works 2/10).

If there is anything missing, let me know and i'll edit the question!
The problem is probably, that when you are creating a new page, you have to re-initialize / get the Canvas again.
Canvas canvas = page.getCanvas();
