I've marked this bug as affecting me, although I'm not sure what
encoding the pdfs are which are crashing PDF Mod. They seem to often be
those generated by the book2net.net "Spirit" scanner.

A workaround seems to be to convert the file:

gs -q -sPAPERSIZE=letter -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pdfwrite
-sOutputFile=converted_file.pdf original_file.pdf
