xpdf: Error (…): Missing ‘endstream’

There are a few PDF documents around here, that I can read with Acrobat Reader w/o problems, but xpdf and its companions moan. I guess, that’s because they got modified and a little destroyed using Acrobat X Pro.

I used pdftk to get rid of that problem: first output/uncompress, than output/compress again:

$ pdftk x.pdf output
    x.uncompressed.pdf uncompress
$ pdftk x.uncompressed.pdf output
    x.recompressed.pdf compress
