I filed <URL: https://bugs.debian.org/828220 > and it have a proposal for fixing the PDF creationDate. But Sunil is right, this do not solve the problem completely, as the included images are also presenting a reproducability problem. This issue is reported in <URL: https://bugs.debian.org/796490 >. A workaround is to use JPEGs instead. :) -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen
