Hi,

I've created a dvm based on fedora-29-minimal and set it as a default dvm for a AppVm. With the current setup I cannot use "Convert to Trusted PDF" feature. The error message is "The remote party return invalid no of pages, aborting!".

I've checked the pre-requisites according to https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-app-linux-pdf-converter/blob/master/qpdf-convert-server
and both packages - poppler-utils (pdftocairo, pdfinfo) and ImageMagick (convert) are available in the dvm-template.

Has anyone an idea what's missing to use the conversion of pdf files?

Thanks, Pete

I am not sure of why this is happening in your case but have you tried creating a new -dvm again? Does the issue persist?

What do you mean exactly by creating a new -dvm again?

It happens every time I use the dvm based on the minimal template. If I switch back to a dvm based on fedora-29, I can use the feature again. The issue persists also after reboot. Is there more needed that the stated pre-requisites?

You have installed the qubes-pdf-converter package, (And all strange
packages that it brings)?
