<pre>I've found that the version of poppler in current Ubuntu 14.04 (I have
poppler-utils 0.24.5-2ubuntu1) has perhaps become too strict and won't parse
PDF files that work fine in other readers. For example with the SPC-4 SCSI
spec available from <a href="http://www.t10.org/cgi-bin/ac.pl?t=f&f=spc4r36q.pdf">http://www.t10.org/cgi-bin/ac.pl?t=f&f=spc4r36q.pdf</a> , I
get:
$ pdfinfo spc4r36q.pdf
Syntax Error: Couldn't find trailer dictionary
Syntax Error: Couldn't read xref table
However, the built-in firefox PDF renderer works with that file, as does mupdf.
Both seem to be able to render the whole document and don't produce any
warnings etc.</pre>
