I use nconvert to convert PDF files to PNG images. I always use the command:
nconvert.exe -dpi 300 -out png -merge_alpha -o out.png -xall "file.pdf"
This used to work just fine. But now I have come across a pdf where only the first page converts fine and all the other pages generate a 1 KB sized file.
When I open this pdf (which looks just fine) and print it again as pdf, I get a new pdf file that is 5kb less in size and converts just fine with nconvert. What is going on here?
Is the original not a "valid" pdf for nconvert?
Pdf in question: https://www.dropbox.com/s/zjut7bmoafoie ... 6.pdf?dl=0
Here is part of the output I get from nconvert:
(I tried to look up what the error code -101 means but no success)
