Florian, thanks for your reply, you were perfectly right, I had a wrong file. Nevertheless the correct one also does not print from kpdf: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp.nobackup$ pdfinfo KKA-DKB.pdf Author: User Creator: DocBridge Mill/cpcold 2.05.01 (Apr 3 2008) Producer: Compart MFFPDF I/O Filter 2008-04-03 01:29:23 CreationDate: Wed Apr 23 03:41:11 2008 ModDate: Wed Apr 23 03:41:11 2008 Tagged: no Pages: 2 Encrypted: no Page size: 612 x 841.9 pts File size: 33527 bytes Optimized: no PDF version: 1.3 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp.nobackup$ file KKA-DKB.pdf KKA-DKB.pdf: PDF document, version 1.3 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/tmp.nobackup$ /var/log/cups/error_log contains: E [18/May/2008:23:25:04 +0200] PID 16470 (/usr/lib/cups/filter/foomatic-rip) stopped with status 3! E [18/May/2008:23:25:04 +0200] [Job 117] Job stopped due to filter errors. The file prints from the linux acroread version. Is there a way to gather useful debug data?
