You keep talking about templates being compiled, if there is an error as you have mentioned this will stop the compile of the template and it will look like it is being complied before the other.
I will say this again, the problem is not when it gets compiled but how you are doing it. And I will be honest you have far too much going on in the Application.cfm, why not put that in the cfml template that pulls up the PDF in the first place? I will ask another question, is this application.cfm in the directory of the template in question, or are you relying on the one in the root of the application? Not that it matters, but might explain why you are doing what you are doing with the counting of each request of the PDF. But you really need to work out why it is trying to compile the PDF as a CFML template, that is what the problem is and until you fix that you need to forget about when and how it compiles the CFML template, because and error is not going to compile anything.
