I tested failed pdf files and recognized, they created by iText (by lowagie.com). > Producer: iText 1.4.8 (by lowagie.com) > Pages: 2 > Encrypted: yes (print:yes copy:no change:no addNotes:no algorithm:RC4) > Page size: 595 x 842 pts (A4) > File size: 30845 bytes > Optimized: no > PDF version: 1.4 Splitting the file with pdfshuffler 0.6.0 worked. > Producer: Python PDF Library - http://pybrary.net/pyPdf/ > Pages: 1 > Encrypted: no > Page size: 595 x 842 pts (A4) > File size: 28274 bytes > Optimized: no > PDF version: 1.3 Then using pdftk again on new file worked too. > Creator: pdftk 2.01 - www.pdftk.com > Producer: Python PDF Library - http://pybrary.net/pyPdf/ > Pages: 1 > Encrypted: no > Page size: 595 x 842 pts (A4) > File size: 28486 bytes > Optimized: no > PDF version: 1.4 So, has it something to do with the encryption or with the library which created the original pdf file ? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/774052 Title: Pdftk fails on PDF annotations added from Evince To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pdftk/+bug/774052/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
