Code to reproduce the problem

import pdfplumber
FILE = "D:\Astro\Charts\"+Name+".pdf"
pdf = pdfplumber.open(FILE)
#Get Basic Data and convert them to Dictionary
page = pdf.pages[1]
Page1_Tables = page.extract_tables()
Paste it here, or attach a Python file.

PDF file

Please attach any PDFs necessary to reproduce the problem.

If you need to redact text in a sensitive PDF, you can run it through JoshData/pdf-redactor.

Expected behavior

What did you expect the result should have been?
It should have extracted tables. It was working fine. However after I reinstalled Anaconda with Python 3.9, this problem has started coming

Actual behavior

What actually happened, instead?

Screenshots

If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

Environment

• pdfplumber version: [e.g., 0.5.22]
• Python version: [e.g., 3.8.1]
• OS: [e.g., Mac, Linux, etc.]

Additional context

Ajay VR Detailed.pdf

Hi @Puneet0353, and thanks for sharing this interesting example. I have examined the file and the error, and have come to the following conclusions:

• Per the traceback you've pasted above (and which I've confirmed), the error is raised by pdfminer.six, the library we use to extract the raw object information from the PDFs. So this isn't an issue that cannot be resolved directly through pdfplumber.

• pdfminer.six appears to raise the error due to an unusual graphics command in the PDF. I'm not entirely sure whether the PDF is malformed or whether it's just unusual. In either case, the PDF appears to parse cleanly if you first repair it with GhostScript:

 gs \
  -o "Ajay VR Detailed-repaired.pdf" \
  -sDEVICE=pdfwrite \
  -dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress \
  "Ajay VR Detailed.pdf"

I hope that helps. In the meantime, I plan to investigate whether there's a way to improve pdfminer.six's handling of the graphics command in your PDF, and will submit a PR on that repository if I find a solution.

Thanks so much. But by installing the previous version of pdfplumber resolved the issue.
