It seems that doc2html.pl is not calling pdf2html.pl, instead it is reading
the .PDF file itself, as though it were plain text.
Be sure to include the correct MIME type when calling doc2html.pl from the
command line, this is most important.
Check that doc2html.pl has the correct full pathname for pdf2html.pl
