Apose.Pdf 4.2.1 null key exception

I am attempting to use Aspose.Pdf 4.2.1 to create a thumbnail for a PDF file. I am developing on Mac OS X 10.8.5 and Java 7.

When I run the following code:
//open document
com.aspose.pdf.Document pdfDocument = new com.aspose.pdf.Document(resourcePath);

if (pdfDocument.getPages().size() > 0) {
// create stream object to save the output image
OutputStream imageStream = new FileOutputStream(convertedPath);

//create Resolution object
Resolution resolution = new Resolution(300);
//create PngDevice object with particular resolution
PngDevice pngDevice = new PngDevice(resolution);
//convert a particular page and save the image to stream
Page page1 = pdfDocument.getPages().get_Item(1);
pngDevice.process(page1, imageStream);

//close the stream
imageStream.close();
}

I end up with this exception stack trace:
class com.aspose.ms.System.e: null key
Parameter name: key
com.aspose.ms.System.a.f.get_Item(Unknown Source)
com.aspose.pdf.a.b.e.b.d.a(Unknown Source)
com.aspose.pdf.a.e.a.a(Unknown Source)
com.aspose.pdf.a.j.b.g.a(Unknown Source)
com.aspose.pdf.a.j.h.a(Unknown Source)
com.aspose.pdf.Z.a(Unknown Source)
com.aspose.pdf.ImageDevice.a(Unknown Source)
com.aspose.pdf.PngDevice.processInternal(Unknown Source)
com.aspose.pdf.PngDevice.process(Unknown Source)

I have seen similar issues to this on the forum but were marked as resolved in 4.1.0 and other recent versions. I am able to use PDF Renderer to do the same conversion on the PDF file but would like to use Aspose instead.

Thanks in advance for any help with this.
