Hello Stuart,

We were able to reproduce the problem, but despite all efforts we
still haven't found its origins. We continue investigation of this
issue and will inform you as soon as applicable solution is found. In
the mean time I suggest you to turn off linearization in XEP.

Best regards,

SAM> I recently converted my company's software manuals from FrameMaker to

SAM> formatted" error when viewed using the Adobe Reader 6.0.1 browser

SAM> I know about the user workarounds (saving the file to disk, turning off

SAM> Adobe claims that this problem is caused by web server problems, but I 
SAM> don't think that's true in this case, because PDF documents generated 
SAM> by FrameMaker work fine.

SAM> I'm using XEP 3.7.7 with this Ant command to generate the PDFs:

SAM>        <xep in="fo/AdviceBook@{platform}.fo"
SAM>             out="pdf/AdviceBook@{platform}.pdf"
SAM>             overwrite="false"
SAM>             format="PDF">
SAM>          <classpath refid="xep-classpath"/>
SAM>          <sysproperty key="com.renderx.xep.ROOT" 
SAM> value="/Users/samalone/XEP"/>
SAM>          <sysproperty key="com.renderx.xep.FONTLIST"
SAM>                     value="/Projects/Life Balance/Documentation/pdf/fonts.xml"/>
SAM>          <sysproperty key="com.renderx.xep.LINEARIZE" value="true"/>
SAM>        </xep>

SAM> The resulting PDFs are available from my company's web site:

SAM>         http://www.llamagraphics.com/resources/documentation/index.html

SAM> Any ideas what's causing this problem or how to fix it?
