              The file in question has streams that are not property encoded for example "[(Opgave 1))]" should have been encoding, [(Opgave 1\))]. As a result the content parser get in an infinite loop as the parenthesis count will never zero out. This issue was lelated to a bug in ICEpdf developer release where the annotation content was not correctly encoded. Work will need to be done to try and see if the content parser can be reworked to handle the unescaped charcter.

              This error was introduced by a specific icepdf version and has now been corrected. Only work around is to delete the annotation.
