Later on Kindle problem

Hi there, I have recently been very excited to discover "Later on Kindle" an extension for Chrome which places a neat Kindle icon on the browser and with one click will send (via email) any open pdf from the browser to your Kindle. However while the extension apparently works well for other users I find that the extension fails to parse the page correctly, and the object to be emailed is not recognised as a pdf. I would love to get this to work but I can't find any help online about it and no-one else reports any problems.

As a concrete example, I am trying to take the pdf from

http://arxiv.org/pdf/1103.4620

which opens in the Chrome browser (I'm running version 10 on a macbook with OS X Snow Leopard) using google's own pdf reader plugin (I suspect my problem may begin here - although I can't get any other pdf reader plugin to work smoothly with Chrome). I have enabled the lateronkindle@gmail.com email address within my Kindle management page. I am not asking Later on Kindle for a conversion to Kindle format (the box is unchecked). Upon clicking the Later on Kindle icon a new tab is opened which is heavily shaded but within which the following message can be read:

"Unable to parse this page for reading content. Delivered by Later on Kindle."

If anyone reading this has any ideas I'd be happy to try them out. And if anyone else can get this extension to work for them I'd be happy to know that too.

Many thanks for any ideas.
