Hello Leonard.
I had the same problem. Try to use PDF Fix Toolbox http://www.pdf.fixtoolbox.com/
The utility reads corrupted PDF files and restores the data into a new file.
I think it will help you.

Hi, what is your Platform ?
If Linux, do you know if Xvfb X server, xauth, and base fonts are installed properly.
I had the same problem several years ago with splunk 4 and my problem was on the version of Xvfb .
