First of all - I would NEVER use --nodeps unless you know exactly what
the package does, what it loads, and where. There is no telling how
many things you have broken doing that. Having said that, I have never
found the db2pdf script and backend to work to my liking - ever.

Normally I make a ps file and then take advantage of ghostscript with
the following:

$gs -q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOutputFile=myfile.pdf myfile.ps

I have not seen this before.. can you send a test file?

Cheers,
