> I did C-x C-f throw.pdf, with no existing file throw.pdf. The
> ensuing messages and interaction were bewildering.
>  
> An extremely long message appeared in the echo area:
> "No image (png) support available or some conversion utility for pdf
> files is missing.  Type C-c C-c to switch to an editing mode or C-c
> C-t to open a buffer showing the doc as text."
>  
> But the new, empty file throw.pdf appeared to be visited with no
> problem. I tried to type into it. That threw me back to the previous
> buffer I had been in (Dired), and crazy error msgs were displayed.
>
> I tried again, and this time I tried to type `C-c C-t', since the 
> message indicated that that would open the buffer as text. That too
> led to errors.
