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

 

As I understand the file you recieved from me is (more or less) corrupt.
Still not sure is this is due to Simple Scan or not..
If so, I should not be the only person having this I presume? 
May be I can re-install Simple Scan? 
Any suggestion is welcome; need the pdf making badly.

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
