Following the previous comment this problem is a Poppler bug and fixed
in current Poppler. Poppler 0.22.x will most probably get into Raring,
but note that the pdftops CUPS filter uses GhostScript in newer Ubuntu
versions, so the problem is probably solved at least from Quantal on.
For older Ubuntu versions where the pdftops CUPS filter still uses
Poppler we should perhaps consider backporting the Poppler fix.
Moving to Poppler ...
Sylvia, thank you for finding out this.

It appears that it caused by SIGFPE Floating Point exception. and the
root cause is an uninitialized variable leading to a division by zero
in poppler-tools.
