I just had a strange occurrence. I was printing out some PDFs and I pulled one down off the web (my wireless bill) and tried to print page
- My browser properly fired up AR9, but nothing printed. I tried
agian, still nothing. I saved the file, opened it with the Document Viewer and it can't print the file either. I tried opening it with GIMP, and it gets this error:
Opening '/home/mhr/Documents/pdfs/vzwA0418.pdf' failed: Plug-in could not open image
I couldn't find any related data in the logs (spooler logs are all empty, nothing in dmesg). I tried disabling and enabling the printer, then turning it off and on to no effect (which is not too surprising).
Follow-up:
I opened up my WXP VM and ran Photoshop Elements to open the file (no errors), created a new PDF of page 1 and it prints just fine....
I'm guessing the file contains some MS-Windows specific thingy (image or embeded object), for which you don't have the whatever plugin to deal with. Photoshop Elements (for MS-Windows) appearently has whatever plugin that can deal with this embeded thingy.
