I often receive PDFs which die with gv. I have just downloaded the current copy of BSD_10_2011.pdf, with stats: MD5 (BSD_10_2011.pdf) = 69c8b0be7c59870eb41e09b46fa568ba -just so's you know. This one causes gv to respond with: Error: /syntaxerror in readxrefGNU Ghostscript 7.07: Unrecoverable error, exit code .. etc. Some PDFs come through OK, but about half fail, often with different errors. I'm running: FreeBSD tomato.local 8.2-RELEASE-p3 FreeBSD 8.2-RELEASE-p3 #0: Tue Sep 27 18:45:57 UTC 2011 root@amd64-builder.daemonology.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC amd64 on an ASUS MB and AMD64 4x CPU. Any ideas? As a retired sysadmin from the 1950s, I'm over my head but can't let go :-) So I need help sometimes :-( Many thanks - Chuck Bacon <crtb@cape.com>
