[Jean Louis]

File name is: Friday-June-24-2022-07:51:07.pdf

and it is valid PDF file.

Error I am getting when trying to open with such file name containing
colons:

DocView: process pdf/ps->png changed status to exited abnormally with
code 1.

If I rename file to avoid ":" then file is opened normally.

I'm unable to reproduce this here.  Are there any additional steps
required to reproduce this than just taking any valid PDF and:

    mv some-valid.pdf /tmp/Friday-June-24-2022-07:51:07.pdf
    ./src/emacs -Q /tmp/Friday-June-24-2022-07:51:07.pdf

?

[Jean Louis]

I have observed that it happens with PDF document created with PAPS, and 
when I run mupdf on command line, I can see this:

mupdf Friday-June-24-2022-07\:51\:12.pdf
error: cannot recognize version marker
warning: trying to repair broken xref
warning: repairing PDF document

mupdf could open the file

then I renamed other file to that file name and Emacs could open it. So 
I guess this is not related to Emacs, please close.
