I decided to try the problem with some pdf files from Adobe's web site. This
file (from Quick start guides):
http://wwwimages.adobe.com/www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/products/acrobat/pdfs/adobe-acrobat-xi-work-with-microsoft-sharepoint-hosted-pdf-files-tutorial-ue.pdf

Gives this error:
$ pdf2ps -dLanguageLevel=2 adobe.pdf out.ps
   **** Warning:  File has an empty CropBox. Using the current page size
instead.
   **** Error reading a content stream. The page may be incomplete.

   **** This file had errors that were repaired or ignored.
   **** The file was produced by:
   **** >>>> Adobe PDF Library 9.9 <<<<
   **** Please notify the author of the software that produced this
   **** file that it does not conform to Adobe's published PDF
   **** specification.

For this 2-page document, the first page of out.ps gets transformed but the
second page does not. The original file is 256.4 KB, while transformed ps is
5.0 MB size. Printing out.ps via lpd to PS-II capable printer shows same
(page 1 has data, page 2 is blank).

So what do you guys think? Should I follow the instructions above and advise
Adobe that one of their documents does not conform to "published PDF
specifications"?
