Re: [hylafax-users] How to find out why email2fax has no PDF attachment?

[Kane Wong <kanew@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Lee;

When I run these two scripts individually, I got the message like this.  I can get the pt.ps file created.  But when I use the pdf2ps for mail2fax, I only got no pdf faxed.

[root@fax2 application]# /usr/bin/pdf2ps pdftest.pdf pt.ps

Although, the pt.ps can be created but when send it through outlook, the pdf is not converted.


[root@fax2 application]# /usr/bin/pdftops pdftest.pdf pt.ps
Segmentation fault

This means that the PDF MIMEConverter failed to convert the PDF to
Postscript.  The default PDF MIMEConverter uses Ghostscript's pdf2ps.
What happens when you simply run pdf2ps against your PDF file?

Thanks,

Lee.
