Did you ever find a reason or solution for this?

In my case, the problem was that I had the property net.sf.jasperreports.export.pdf.tag.table=end in an element (the last cell of  the last row) that repeated for every record in the data I was using to populate the template.

I needed to put the property in an element after the repeating portion of the table. 

I found the solution here: Stackoverflow: the-pdf-report-with-manual-tagging-throws-emptystackexception
