Comment 5 for bug 229524

just for fun, created an empty pdf file, tried to import it, got this crash message

C:\Python25\APP>inkcl.py
return code: -1073741819 (hex C0000005)
Error: Couldn't open 'nameToUnicode' file 'C:\target\share\poppler\nameToUnicode\a'
Error: May not be a PDF file (continuing anyway)
Error: PDF file is damaged - attempting to reconstruct xref table...
Error: Couldn't find trailer dictionary
Error: Couldn't read xref table

the implication seems to be that the crash occurred before the file was opened

traceback follows :
