Folks, further to Frank's Comment #55:

After testing today with the latest version of PDFX (64-bit MSI) on 64-bit
Ubuntu 14.04.2, it seems only the first-loaded PDF (after program startup)
triggers a crash.

I set up the following launcher:

wine '/home/user/.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Tracker Software/PDF
Viewer/PDFXCview.exe' 'c:/PDFXWarning.pdf'

... to always load a dummy PDF at startup.

If I closed that auto-loaded PDF then opened the PDF I wanted to work on, no
crashes -- in line with Frank's comment.  I could work on and repeatedly save
the subsequently loaded PDF without issue.

IMPORTANT: Do not work on more than one document at a time.  From my testing
with multiple PDFs open at once, hitting the save button saves ALL open
documents/tabs -- NOT just the "active tab".  I would not be surprised if it's
that save bug causing the central issue.

So, here's my workaround based off Frank's observation in Comment #55:

(1) Launch PDFX so that it auto-loads a dummy PDF
(2) Immediately after startup, close the auto-loaded PDF
(3) Now open one PDF to work on at a time.  Never have two or more open at
once!
