Yep, of course; FYI, got the same error from 3 differents PC's (Official
WinXP Pro SP1) both using the free Acrobat Reader 6 and Acrobat Professional
6.
Same errors reading the *.pdf files under /www/dokumentasjon/ :
bugrap_howto.pdf ERROR!
IKT-bok.de.pdf ERROR!
IKT-bok.en.pdf ERROR!
IKT-bok.nl.pdf ERROR!
IKT-bok.orig.nb.pdf OK! <--- strange uh?
IKT-bok.pdf ERROR!
ldap_admin.pdf ERROR!
Rammekrav.pdf ERROR!
And under /www/dokumentasjon/driftbok/ :
driftbok.no.pdf OK! <--- again, the original file is ok.
netgroups.de.pdf ERROR!
netgroups.en.pdf ERROR!
And under /www/dokumentasjon/images all the png images rea unreadable via
Adobe Photoshop 8 and any other Viewer (ie -> Default Microsoft WinXP Viewer
or Office Picture Manager)
Concerning the *.pdf files,
looks like the original files are all well generated while the problem could
be in the "autogenerating process" of the translated files.
*me scratching head too :-)
