It's very likely an AppleScript that you can open with the Script Editor to see what it's trying to do. It may have been saved in the compiled form without the source attached, but there's a chance it's there and you can possibly fix it. My guess is it's calling out to a PDF tool that isn't in the same place as it used to be, isn't included anymore, or is something that you had installed but isn't anymore.
