So how do you get the Portable Document Format (PDF) files readable in windoze?
Other linux machines don;t have an issue reading them but the minute I send one
to a windows user or file share both FoxIt and Adobe report that the file either
is not a pdf or is damaged.

I'm suspicious that there is an issue in xsane, since pdf I create with other tools work really well for both Windows and Mac. What does pdfinfo say about the file, anything useful? I swear I had a command called pdftopdf which was useful for bad stuff others sent me, but I can't find it, it is/was part of cups.

I use other software to write pdf, so I can't give you any more info that that.
