Content is not allowed

>Hi there,

While trying to print a pdf document I have this error.
the test.pdf file is a proper PDF file.

[ERROR] FOP 0.20.4
[ERROR] Logger not set
[INFO] building formatting object tree
[ERROR]: Content is not allowed in prolog.
[ERROR] Content is not allowed in prolog.
[Fatal Error] test.pdf:1:1: Content is not allowed in prolog.

My code is very simple

       options = new org.apache.fop.apps.CommandLineOptions(this.args);
       org.apache.fop.apps.Starter starter = 
(org.apache.fop.apps.Starter)options.getStarter();
       starter.run();

where args contains only the filename and the -print option

Tips?
Leonardo

FOP is not a tool for printing PDF files. It expects as it's
input a specific XML vocabulary, XSLFO, and will format it
*into* PDF (or one of a few other formats), or format and
print it.
If you want to print PDF files, use Acrobat Reader, xpdf,
ghostscript or some other PDF related tool.
