Summary 0008326: PDF is corrupt
Description I can't make a good pdf from my 8-page color newsletter. I can send it directly to the printer, using my HP DeskJet 930C, and that turns out OK, but I need a good pdf for the printer. The pdf I generate drops whole sections of pictures and text. GSView 4.9 reports post scrip errors, but I can't tell what they are and how to fix them. Here's the text:

Current allocation mode is local
Last OS error: No such file or directory
pdf_page failed

Acroread displays the same corrupt image as GS.
Steps To Reproduce Tried changing PDF versions and loads of other variables, without positive results.
Additional Information I don't know how to upload an entire folder, or even more than one file. So I will upload the pdf in a separate report.
Tags No tags attached.

> I don't know how to upload an entire folder
Compress it

> or even more than one file
You can upload more than one file by going to the bug report after opening it and you'll see an "Upload file" section

> So I will upload the pdf in a separate report
Please do not open a separate report for that

Sorry for my ignorance. I hope the new attachments are OK. I did not include the pdf, because it exceeds the file size of 5mb.

I think I'm still not getting how to compress. When I "gather," I would normally expect that all the supporting files (pix, etc) would be put together with the main file in a single, sendable folder.

>> how to compress

In Windows Explorer, right click => Send to => Compressed Folder

Thank you. This is a new, smaller file, cut to three pages. It behaves the same way when I try to make the pdf. It looks fine when I preview it for the printer.

I was able to print a .ps to file then convert it via GS to a pdf, and it worked just fine. I'm sure this is a good hint as to where to look for the bug.

Thanks, i was able to reproduce the issue without your new files. It is now fixed in 1.3.5.1svn (or 1.3.6svn, i don't know yet how we will call the next release based on 1.3.5 branch). Anyway an updated build will be available on sourceforge at the end of the week.
