Hi Peter,

Thank you for your very nice module.
For your information, I wanted just to report an issue I noticed with Adobe 
Reader (Version: 11.0.0 (11.0.0)) on Mac OS X 10.8: when I try to open the file 
« pile.pdf » (which is in your « examples » directory) Adobe Reader crashes and 
there is no way to open that file with it. However th eother file, « rotate.pdf 
» opens without any problem…

Best regards: OK
