Indefinite loading circle after selecting PDF

[SleepMoover]

Issue with importing certain PDFs similar to another issue posted by shmeets.

PDF files will open fine and imports correctly with Place function and the standard PlaceMultiplePDF script.
Most certainly something wrong with type of PDF files, as if I use 'save as' in acrobat the PDFs will then import fine.
My issue is that I recieve a lot of PDFs to import and roughly half will cause the program to freeze.

Example of error causing PDF can be found below:
40 S355 J2+N.pdf

Windows 10 & 11
Indesign 19.0.1 x64

The sample pdf looks kind of odd for sure: pdf producer and the fonts used are quite unusual. But if you can place it manually it should nominally behave the same when using the script.

I only have limited access to InDesign right now - do you get any kind of error when running this or does it really just freeze the whole app?

No error, unless there's a log file I'm supposed to be looking at.
The program will become unresponsive besides a popup window when trying to exit the program.
Tested on two different computers and multiple versions of indesign dating roughly a year back.
