from FO files, and most of the time, everything works great. But occasionally,
if we open the generated PDF in Adobe Acrobat Reader (versions 6 or 7), we
receive the following error:<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>After that, some pages display ok, while
others are just blank white pages. It appears that when there are errors,
the pages that don't display are confined to content from specific page-sequences
in the FO file. So for each page-sequence within the FO, the PDF content
either all displays fine, or all pages are blank. It does have the
correct total number of pages though.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>Then if we reprocess the same FO file, the
new PDF works fine. There does not seem to be a way to reproduce the
problem intentionally, even using an FO file which generated a bad PDF once.
Does anyone know what the problem might be? Thanks!<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
