Or I did not explain my self good enough...

Yes, and make it ONE pdf file.

That is right. No entry in the log that indicate that the upload script has
been called when I get the error message.

With an older version of Firefox unde FC4 I get "Alert: Document contain no
data", while I with the latest Firefox under Windows 2000 get a message
that say "The connection to the server was reset while the page was
loading". And I get a different message with IE under W2k.

No errors in the error_log file.

I also tried:
* Open the original Word document on my W2k machine and save it as pure txt
* Start word and insert the txt file and do a simple format
* Save the document to a new filename.
* On FC4: Convert the new document file in OpenOffice and convert it to PDF
* Upload the PDF file.

This works OK. But FC4 is not able to view the PDF file.

I also had a friend to convert the first Word document to PDF on a Windows
platform (since I don't have the proper software under Windows). This one
also fails, but now I can view the PDF file on FC4 without problems.
