Could not read PDF file without xref table #309
Description
From this answer on StackOverflow the "minimal" PDF is
$ cat /tmp/minimal.pdf
%PDF-1.0
1 0 obj<</Type/Catalog/Pages 2 0 R>>endobj 2 0 obj<</Type/Pages/Kids[3 0 R]/Count 1>>endobj 3 0 obj<</Type/Page/MediaBox[0 0 3 3]>>endobj
trailer<</Size 4/Root 1 0 R>>
I can read /tmp/minimal.pdf with Evince and Chrome built-in PDF reader but PyPDF2 gives me
>>> import PyPDF2
>>> PyPDF2.__version__
'1.26.0'
>>> PyPDF2.PdfFileReader("/tmp/f.pdf")
