Does PDFRead work on your computer when not using the unpaper input box? What operating system are you using?

Could you suggest what should I change to get through?

It appears Windows crashed when unpaper was writing it's temporary output to the internal file 'page_o.pgm'. Could a previous call to PDFRead not have finished properly? aborted? still running? Something has a "lock" on the filename and won't allow 'unpaper' to complete after the first page is output.
Try rebooting and clearing out your temp directory 'c:\temp\pdfread-obxzoi'.
I don't know enough about unpaper to be able to support it other than some simple processing.
Perhaps use another pdf-to-pdf software tool to first split it into single page and then run that new .pdf through PDFRead.
