Study plan for a steiner school

Hi!

According to the page
"If you have documents that don't render properly with poppler, please open a bug in bugzilla and attach the PDF file there, if possible." 

My large PDF file cannot be attached here (its size is 4,1 MB). I didn't manage to get the text version from it but it might be also a user problem since I've been using Linux Mint just a bit more than half a year. How could I deliver the file for you?

It looks like the attachment was accepted. :)

What's wrong with the file?  I don't see a problem with either rendering or text.
Comment 3 Kaisa Mäkelä 2017-05-21 21:42:54 UTC
If there isn't any problem with the file so the problem is then here between the chair and the keyboard. :) 

I'm using Linux Mint but I suppose it should work in the same way with all distributions. For some reason the file does not appear in the folder I targeted but I don't receive any error either.

The obvious question is, which poppler version are you using?
