PDF woes

[Roger Oberholtzer]

I have Acrobat 5.0.5 as well.

What happens if you print to a file and then try to view the postscript file
with gv? I get the reported messages. And, as this very same ghostscript
does the print filtering (via CUPS), printing errors are no surprise.

I will try from Gentoo at home this evening.
