Hi Christiaan,

no pdf of the ones opening with a gray page has a TOC or – as far as I know – anything special.
Just now SKIM opened a 4 page pdf with a gray page.
But then I installed the SKIM test version you provided and it works!
That is no guarantee (because the old version also opened sometimes correctly), but it looks OK. The test version is 1.3.7 (55). Is that different ot the one I had 10 minutes ago?

Servus, tschau, bye

Hi David,
could it be that you have the same effect as I do?
Does Skim show you an empty bray page and in the header is the number of the last page? I, too, experienced: sometimes SKIM does it OK, sometimes I only get a gray page (from the very same pdf).
best regards

It sounds like the same problem, whatever it is. Is there something special with these PDFs? Do they have a TOC (or not)? Are they encrypted (which is not the same as whether they require a password)?

I put a test version to test something out on http://skim-app.sourceforge.net/Skim.dmg , does this have this problem? (This is not a fix, it's only to test something out).

PDF opens and is in the list under the Window menu, but is invisible.
Also pdf is scrolled to the last page as window heading says (page
last of last).

10.5.8, PPC G4, Version 1.3.7 (55)

Attached is one such pdf.  It will open with Adobe.

If I restart Skim, the attached pdf will open in Skim.  But it won't
be visible immediately after download.  Most pdfs are opening
invisibly and most will open visible after restarting Skim.
