The process used to created it isn't amenable to automation into a cron job?

For some values of xpdf :-(

xpdf 1.00 and 1.01 both fail for me with:

X Error of failed request:  BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  53 (X_CreatePixmap)
  Serial number of failed request:  303
  Current serial number in output stream:  337

so I guess that whatever xpdf needs to do to display it is an utter resource
hog and wants way more than either of my rather old machines that act as X
servers can actually provide.

Maybe acrobat is also failing due to blowing some internal resource limits.
