Description Germano Massullo 2015-05-26 11:25:07 UTC 
Description of problem:
Everytime I try to print a PDF file, cups says 
"Filter failed".
Enabling CUPS logs, does not shows any error log file, only access_log and page_log
With older CUPS releases PDF file printing always worked fine.

cups-1.7.5-15.fc21.x86_64

I have found out that the problem happens only with a specific file. I cannot attach it here because it contains sensitive data.
Comment 2 Tim Waugh 2015-06-16 15:16:33 UTC 
Please run the printing troubleshooter:
  https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_debug_printing_problems#Printing_troubleshooter

and attach its output.
