MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - Won't Convert Certain PDF's-Get This Error Message

Ravensknight · 06-30-2009, 06:07 PM

The following is what I have received on several occasions when converting a PDF to epub. I have no idea what it means, except that it won't convert the pdf file :-)

Any help? Or are the pdf files just corrupt? I can open them fine with Adobe Reader 9 and with the viewer in Calibre though.

thanks!
