A guess: please check that you transmit/store PDF as a _binary_
file, and not as text. If newlines are screwed up in the compressed
byte streams, the body of the PDF is very likely to become unreadable;
on the other hand, annotations (including hyperlinks) are always
represented as plain text, and may survive newline conversions.
If I missed the point, then please:
- open your crippled PDF document with Xpdf and/or GhostScript,
and see if it gives you any warning. In general, Xpdf has absolutely
the best diagnostics of all PDF reading software;
- send me a sample of your broken PDF off list.
Best regards,
Nikolai Grigoriev
