Hi
I have a problem using qpdf (http://qpdf.sourceforge.net/) with context beta
since 2011.02.08.
Don't really know whose fault it is, but there might be something wrong with
mkiv.
All I want to do is generating a linearized (web optimized) pdf using qpdf as
hinted on this list (see
http://www.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2011/055626.html).
I was able to use it until context beta 2011.02.08, and getting an error since.
Here's what I'm doing:
1)
test.tex contains
%%%
\starttext
Hello world!
\stoptext
%%%
2) running "context test.tex" to make the pdf
3) running "qpdf --linearize test.pdf out.pdf"
which creates the optimized out.pdf
So up until and including context beta 2011.02.05 everything was working.

reviczky@calcium ~/Desktop % qpdf --linearize test.pdf out.pdf
reviczky@calcium ~/Desktop %

But since beta 2011.02.08 (10:06) I get just a very brief error:
---
reviczky@calcium ~/Desktop % qpdf --linearize test.pdf out.pdf
operation for Name object attempted on object of wrong type
2 reviczky@calcium ~/Desktop % :(

Does anyone have a clue what might go wrong here?
Does context beta (mkiv) generates broken pdf's now? How can I check that?
qpdf isn't too helpful with that:
---
checking test.pdf
PDF Version: 1.6
File is not encrypted
File is not linearized
No syntax or stream encoding errors found; the file may still contain
errors that qpdf cannot detect
best is to make two pdf files that are as small as possible and send
them off-list to Luigi and me so that we can look into them.
