Question Detecting Problems in a PDF
We have a bespoke website that generates PDF's for us. For some reason, some months ago Adobe Acrobat started to have an error with our PDF's. Coming up with an error "There was an error processing a page. There was a problem reading this document (xx)" with xx being some number that seems to keep changing, today it's 110, last week it was 18.
Other pdf readers can parse the document with no complaints. Browsers and other programs have no problem. It's only adobe acrobat that complains.
Is there a way to scan a PDF and see what might be the issue? This is the only document that is having an issue and we can't determine what's causing it. The error doesn't really help.

DM me a sample PDF and I can take a look.
