hmm, that url doesn't work (probably because of the session id), but
assuming this is the same document, it works on xpdf (amd64 -current) for
me;

http://bizsupport1.austin.hp.com/bc/docs/support/SupportManual/bpu02659/bpu02659.pdf

maybe it was fixed in the security update to 3.02pl3 or miod's out of
bounds access that are only in OPENBSD_4_6/-current.

but let me plug mupdf anyway because it's great ;-) xpdf takes quite a
while to draw this on my machine - 3.3 seconds. mupdf literally *half*
that, and imho the font rendering is far more pleasant.

in -current, pkg_add mupdf. the -current port of this will most likely
build on 4.5 too if you want to try it.
