When I produce a pdf, everything is fine. When I need to send a part of the pdf so my friends to read the document, there are several ways to do it. But all of them are buggy.
When I try to print from acrobat to kprinter's pdf-printer, there is this error-message: "/undefined filename in pdf" or there is a conflict with Qt-symbols (?). But it does never produce a new file.
If you use acrobat (not the reader) then you can copy some pages of your document into a new pdf and send them to your friends.
Another possibility is to open your document with ghostview. In that program use the menu File -> Convert. As device choose pdfwrite. Now you can select the pages which should be printed into a new document. (This is printing pdf to pdf as you tried.)
When I try to produce a ps from LyX, there are no Images at all in the document, they are just missing (they are not missing in the pdf).
This is most likely a problem of your ps-viewer. (With the latest ghostview/ghostscript it works fine).
