Package: tetex-bin Version: 3.0-16 Severity: normal The resulting pdf file can be opened normally by gv or xpdf, but could not be viewed using acroread under either windows or linux: the error message is 'A drawing error occurred' when moving to the second page. On the second page, there is an eps figure, which is automatically converted into pdf by epstopdf (I set the --shell-escape option.)
I googled it and got several hits. Some people had the same problem but under different scenarios. Their pdf files were created by ps2pdf, and people thought the problem was caused by an unstable version of ghostscript "gs" 8.15 gs-esp. I also tried (tex) latex -> (dvi) dvips -> (ps) ps2pdf (pdf) then acroread can open the resulting pdf. Seems the problem lies in pdflatex or epstopdf. (Of course, it can be a bug of acroread as well.)
