iText 7.1.6 + Document was closed. It is impossibl

Question

I am using Itext 7.1.6 to generate the PDF. When I try to run , I get this error document was closed . It is impossible to execute the action.

I checked solutions in stackoverflow for this but they are saying it is related to fonts. I modified the fonts by creating instance every time I use it but even then I get same issue.

I am unable to figure out how I can resolve this issue. Can anyone please help me to fix it ?

Please find the below code and exception

    Document doc = null;
PdfPage sourcePage = null;
try (   InputStream resource = new FileInputStream(new File(Paths.get("Output").toAbsolutePath()+"/source.pdf"));
       PdfReader pdfReader = new PdfReader(resource);
       PdfDocument pdfDocument = new PdfDocument(pdfReader)    ) {
   PdfDocumentContentParser contentParser = new PdfDocumentContentParser(pdfDocument);
   MarginFinder strategy = contentParser.processContent(1, new MarginFinder());

   sourcePage = pdfDocument.getPage(1);
   sourcePage.setCropBox(strategy.getBoundingBox());
   sourcePage.setMediaBox(strategy.getBoundingBox());
}

As already indicated in comment to your previous question

You appear to already have closed the source document at that time. It mustn't be closed then to allow copying from it.

Thus, don't close it early, neither explicitly nor by creating it in a try-with-resources:

Document doc = null;
PdfDocument pdfDocument = null; //!!!
PdfPage sourcePage = null;
try (   InputStream resource = new FileInputStream(new File(Paths.get("Output").toAbsolutePath()+"/test.pdf"));    ) {  //!!!
   PdfReader pdfReader = new PdfReader(resource); //!!!
   pdfDocument = new PdfDocument(pdfReader); //!!!
   PdfDocumentContentParser contentParser = new PdfDocumentContentParser(pdfDocument);
   MarginFinder strategy = contentParser.processContent(1, new MarginFinder());

   sourcePage = pdfDocument.getPage(1);
   sourcePage.setCropBox(strategy.getBoundingBox());
   sourcePage.setMediaBox(strategy.getBoundingBox());
   //pdfDocument.close(); //!!!
}
