The customer reports and I've verified that the attached PDF file generates an "Error: /stackunderflow in --run--" error when opened with Ghostscript head (r12034), 9.00, and earlier versions. Acrobat 10.0.0 and Apple Preview 5.0.3 open the file without complaint. muPDF opens the file, but produces a warning: + mupdf/pdf_xref.c:63: pdf_readstartxref(): cannot find startxref | mupdf/pdf_xref.c:493: pdf_loadxref(): cannot read startxref \ mupdf/pdf_xref.c:549: pdf_openxrefwithstream(): trying to repair The command line I'm using for testing: bin/gs -sDEVICE=ppmraw -o test.ppm ./Jalousie.pdf

Created attachment 7143 [details] patch Search for 'trailer' harder: at the end and at the beginning of the file. This helps to recover some more of broken linearized files.
The patch has been committed as a rev. 12040.
