when I save a PDF document with this code:

print "open the original document \n"; my $pdf1 = CAM::PDF->new($doc1); print "save it to the new location \n"; $pdf1->output($newdoc1);

I get no errors. However if I use this code:

print "open the original document \n"; my $pdf1 = CAM::PDF->new($doc1); print "save it to the new location \n"; $pdf1->cleanoutput($newdoc1);

I get this error:

Bad request for object 1121 at position 0 in the file Use of uninitialized value in string eq at C:/Dwimperl/perl/site/lib/C +AM/PDF.pm line 4898. Not a ref at C:/Dwimperl/perl/site/lib/CAM/PDF.pm line 5273.

In case it is helpful, the getPrefs method returns this list

[ [0] undef, [1] undef, [2] 1, [3] 1, [4] 1, [5] 1 ]

Doc1 is a PDF document that opens OK in Adobe reader and professional.
