I am getting this error trying to compile a latex document using pdflatex. I've stripped the tex file down to this
\documentclass[letterpaper,oneside,12pt]{article}
\usepackage[letterpaper,textwidth=7.5in,textheight=9.5in]{geometry}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\begin{document}
\begin{figure}[H]
\includegraphics{figures/Jan25/svdDir_svdCompare1.pdf}
\end{figure}
\end{document}
This produces the final output I want but still gives that error which is hugely annoying because I use vim-latex and the error causes it to take me to another window which I then have to close out and switch back to the tex file every time I compile.
The pdf file was generated from a Matlab figure; a process which I do several times per day with no problem. I did try regenerating the file but it still gives that error. I've also tried copying it and renaming but that also doesn't change anything.
