Hi Till, thanks a lot for your help.

I moved the document using sudo mv.... into the directory
/usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftops and renamed the original pdftops into
pdftops2. I used the command chmod 755 as indicated by you. When I look
at the file properties it says "Allow executing file as program".
However, user of the file is not root but me. Furthermore, the file type
is "shell script (application/x-shellscript"), whereas the original file
type is "shared library (application/x-sharedlib)". These differences
probably account for the fact that the change hasn't improved anything.
It is probably quite simple for some to change the file type and user of
the file. However, it would take me at least an hour to find out using
ubuntu-wiki. Maybe you could just briefly tell me the necessary
commands.

Thanks a lot

Kilian
