Description

The file "ItDoesntWorkScan.pdf" renders to an empty
black page. This file is a copy of "ItDoesntWorkPrinted.pdf"
that has been printed on paper, and then scanned with
a Xerox WorkCentre 5030 scanner, which then emails a pdf file
back to the user.
Tested On:

• Mac OS 10.6
• Windows 7
• Ubuntu 10.10
  Unfortunately, the WorkCentre 5030 doesn't appear to have
  many user-settable options for scanning to PDF, so we weren't
  really able to try scanning with settings other than the defaults.

Will attach pdf and code to demonstrate.
