Fix invalid PDF due to extra line in spoolfile #5

Closed NtH0 closed 6 years ago

NtH0 commented 6 years ago

The removed fwrite was adding an unnecessary %PDF at the second line of the spoolfile. Some Acrobat Reader versions would refuse to open those files. The validation tool at https://www.pdf-online.com/osa/validate.aspx was also reporting errors.
