   SOLVED :
   it's because the webserver does not allow using readfile()
   here is the code from article2pdf_getfile.php on about line 44

   $tmpfile = $tmpdir . (substr( $tmpdir, -1 ) != '/' ? '/' : '') . 'a2p.tmp.' . $post_name . '.' . $tmprand . '.pdf';
   	if( file_exists( $tmpfile ) )
   	{
   		if( $_GET[ 'debug_pdf_file' ] != '1' )
   		{
   			header( "Content-Type: application/pdf" );
   			header( "Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"" . $post_name . ".pdf\"" );
   		}
   		//readfile( $tmpfile );
                   <strong>// replace with </strong>
                  echo file_get_contents($tmpfile);
   		unlink( $tmpfile );
   	}
   	else	die( 'Sorry no pdf tempfile found. Please try again.' );

   Hope it helps other
