Recent texlive 2008 installed on Linux Slackware 12.0 system. I have a file that I can process via texexec and which shows up fine on my Acrobat Reader, kpdf or xpdf. However another person using (probably) Windows keeps getting corrupt file errors when he tries to read it. And when I try to run the output pdf through pdf2ps it blows up with this message: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- **** Warning: An error occurred while reading an XREF table. **** The file has been damaged. This may have been caused **** by a problem while converting or transfering the file. **** Ghostscript will attempt to recover the data.

I took out all the advanced stuff, such as bookmarks, interaction and urls but I still get the same kind of error. An old pdf version of the file, dating back to February, also blows up. The preamble to the file plus dummy text looks like this: -------------------------------- \setupoutput[pdftex] \setupindenting[none] \setupwhitespace[medium] \frenchspacing \setupcolors[state=start] \setuphead[chapter][head=nomarking,number=no] \setuphead[section][number=no,textcommand=\bf] \setuphead[subsection][number=no] \setuphead[subsubsection][number=no] %\setupinteraction[state=start,color=blue] \setuplist[section][alternative=f,style=bold,interaction=no] \setuplist[subsection][alternative=f,interaction=no] \setuplist[subsubsection][alternative=c,interaction=no] \starttext foo \stoptext -------------- This blows up on pdf2ps also. I just created a dummy pdftex file, compiled it, then converted it with pdf2ps with no problem. Either there is an error in my preamble or something fishy with Context. Thoughts? -- John Culleton
