[Bug 1023803] Re: HPLIP scanned documents saved as pdf file cannot be opened by WIndows users.

 

when submitting to http://www.pdf-tools.com/pdf/validate-pdfa-
online.aspx i get:

----------
Validating file "Scan doc-pvb.pdf" for conformance level pdfa-1a
The file trailer dictionary is missing or invalid.
The file trailer dictionary must have an id key.
The key Metadata is required but missing.
The key MarkInfo is required but missing.
The separator before 'endstream' must be an EOL.
A device-specific color space (DeviceRGB) without an appropriate output intent is used.
The document does not conform to the requested standard.
The file format (header, trailer, objects, xref, streams) is corrupted.
The document contains device-specific color spaces.
The document's meta data is either missing or inconsistent or corrupt.
The document doesn't provide appropriate logical structure information.
Done.
----------

probably something is broken.

Title:
  HPLIP scanned documents saved as pdf file cannot be opened by WIndows
  users.

Status in Simple Scan:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  For scanning files I use HPLIP; which uses simple scan. I save the files as pdf and send these to collegues.
  If my collegue uses Windows he cannot open the pdf file, but all Linux users can open the files without problems.
  I cannot find any ¨file protection¨ being active or whatever. This problem is present only since using latest version of Xubuntu (12.04). Formerly (Ubuntu 10.04.4) I did not have this problem.
  My scanner is HP Photosmart C4580
