I don't have a solution, but if you want to do some more digging... I think I had the same problem with the DocumentLibrary pdf converter. You may want to comment out (what I think is) the last line in lib/python/Products/DocumentLibrary/FileConverters/pdf.py (it deletes the temp pdf file), which will keep the pdf (saved in /tmp) from being deleted; you can then go in, and take a look at that file to see if it is corrupt, and compare it to the one you uploaded. I did, and that is what I found - it is not saving the entire file out... fixing it is a different story (someone else might have an answer).

I don't use Python, I work in DTML. I'm cataloging technical documents. I do not use Document Library or the CMF, in part because of compatibility restrictions. (The site must support NetPositive, a non-javascript, non-CSS compatible browser.) The documents I'm indexing are html, text, Word, PowerPoint, and PDF files. I have the CMF and the Document Library product installed; I also had installed wvWare, though I'm not sure I installed it correctly. (The instructions were vague.) This is my problem. When I update my Catalog, I get a number of errors on the linux box that runs my Zope installation, related to PDF files: Error (0): PDF file is damaged - attempting to construct xref table ... Error: Top level pages is wrong type (null) Error: Couldn't read page catalog Error: Couldn't find trailer dictionary Error: Couldn't read xref table These repeat a few times, giving me two screens worth, before the index updating is complete. I can think of at least one problem that might be going on here: I think some PDF documents were added as type "DocumentFile", which is related to the DocumentLibrary stuff. Anyway, I'm trying to get rid of the errors, and be able to index the text of PDF and Word files. Suggestions? I'm forwarding this to the DocumentLibrary product engineer, too.
