The problem is definitely with PDF/A-1, though I am not sure if it is with OpenOffice, or with the document reader on the Windows machine.
# uname -a Linux skyscraper 2.6.24-23-generic #1 SMP Mon Jan 26 01:04:16 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux OpenOffice.org 2.4.1 Save document as PDF/A-1 (selecting FDF or PDF doesn't make a difference). Open this pdf on a Windows XP machine with OmniPage 1.5: works without problems. Open this pdf on a Windows XP machine with Adobe Reader 9.0: "There was an error processing a page. Invalid ColorSpace". Whereupon the document cannot be viewed. Tweaked some setting in Adobe Reader, to no avail. I tried moving my ~/openoffice.org2 directory out of the way, starting OpenOffice again (~/openoffice.org2 will be regenerated at this point), opening the original odt document and saving it again as PDF/A-1 (with either FDF or PDF checked). This did not make any difference: the document could still not be opened in Acrobat Reader 9.0, with the above very persistent error being isssued. bjd 20090301 -- [ooo-build] Exported PDF/A documents cannot be opened by Adobe Reader https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/237678 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
