Hi, I'm wondering whether pdftex complains if I set the variable \pdfoptionpdfminorversion to a very low value and use PDF features which had been introduced in more recent versions of Acrobat. Does pdftex complain in this case? There is a problem with the manual, the file pdftex-a.pdf contains the line "%PDF-1.5" which requires AR6 which is not available for Linux. I doubt that this is necessary here because it doesn't make use of the latest features. So "%PDF-1.4" would be better. Maybe even a lower value could be used. Because many people work on the manual, it makes sense to set \pdfoptionpdfminorversion explicitely in the file.
