pdf 1.5 pb

[olivier Turlier]

Hi Contexers,
I've used Acrobat 6 to import and create .pdfs for inclusion as images, not thinking about compatibility mode (set by default on acrobat 6 I suppose).
When I try to texexec a .tex doc with such pdf inclusions, i get this output :
	Error: pdfetex (file ./pieces-graphiques-l.pdf): pdf inclusion: found pdf version <1.5>, but at most version <1.4> allowed
 ==> Fatal error occurred, the output PDF file is not finished!

My actual system (tetex+last context beta --thanks to Patrick Gundlach for his installcontext.sh script):
	pdfetex  --version
pdfeTeX (Web2C 7.4.5) 3.14159-1.10b-2.1
	texexec --version
 TeXExec 4.3 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2004
	texutil --version
 TeXUtil 8.2 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1992-2004


Thanks for your answer

You could try this:

	$ perl -npi.bak -e 's/%PDF-1.5/%PDF-1.4/;' *.pdf

It might/might not work, I do not have any read PDF-1.5  files to test.

If they use 1.5 features (compression of file structure etc!) it won't 
work.

You mean the embedded object streams? I never ran into such a file. I'd 
rather expect problems with 1.5 files that do layers and such, since then 
we need to merge in clever ways.

You can also use the Acrobat 6 PDF Optimizer (Acrobat 6 Menu: Advanced ->
PDF Optimizer) to create PDF files in earlier PDF versions. I usually use
"compatible with acrobat 4" which works quite nicely with PDFTEX. I don't
quite understand why they didn't make that an option in the "save as" dialog
...
