Hi, I got a problem printing PDF files on a Linux system using LPRNG 3.8.2 and IFHP 3.5.2. The PDF file is not printed, just a error message on a single sheet of paper:
Conversion failed for type 'pdf_document,_version_1.2' Using '/usr/bin/pdf2ps' Error: 'Converter exited with status 'exit status 1'' This is most likely created by ifhp; this is also confirmed by the status file in the spool directory: using model 'DEFAULT' at 08:20:51.940 pagecount using 'pjl info pagecount' at 08:20:51.942 setting up printer at 08:20:51.942 pagecounter 51821 after 1 attempts at 08:20:52.040 pagecounter 51821 at 08:20:52.040 sending job file at 08:20:52.040 starting transfer at 08:20:52.041 file program = '/usr/bin/file -' at 08:20:52.041 started FILE_UTIL- 'file' at 08:20:52.041 file information = 'pdf_document,_version_1.2' at 08:20:52.052 initial job type 'pdf_document,_version_1.2' at 08:20:52.052 decoded job type 'POSTSCRIPT' at 08:20:52.052 job type 'POSTSCRIPT', converter '/usr/bin/pdf2ps - -' at 08:20:52.052 started CONVERTER- 'pdf2ps' at 08:20:52.053 'CONVERTER' error msg 'AFPL Ghostscript 7.03: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1' at 08:20:52.156 converter done, output 271 bytes at 08:20:52.158 initial job type 'POSTSCRIPT' at 08:20:52.158 decoded job type 'POSTSCRIPT' at 08:20:52.158 job type 'POSTSCRIPT' at 08:20:52.158 transferring 271 bytes at 08:20:52.159 100 percent done at 08:20:52.159 data sent at 08:20:52.159 sent job file at 08:20:52.159 getting end using 'pjl job/eoj' at 08:20:52.159 code = 10024, 'waiting' at 08:20:53.099 end of job detected at 08:20:53.169 pagecounter 51821 after 1 attempts at 08:20:53.183 pagecounter 51821, pages 0 at 08:20:53.183 done at 08:20:53.183 pdf2ps invoked manually works fine (for all PDF files I tried), so it should be ok. As I am using the new AFPL Ghostscript version 7.3 the problem may be in the call of pdf2ps in ifhp (may be a change in the pdf2ps options or gs options in pdf2ps?). Any suggestions?
