assert xrefstream["/Type"] == "/XRef"

I cant read one PDF file because /Type == /Page and I cant understand the reason.

<class 'PyPDF2.generic.DictionaryObject'> {'/Parent': IndirectObject(1, 0), '/Contents': IndirectObject(4, 0), '/Type': '/Page', '/Resources': Indirec tObject(2, 0)}

Follow the file: http://communy.com.br/static/cobranca.pdf

Please, can anybody help me?

I am getting the same issue with another PDF. That can be causing this?

Also getting this with the PDF provided.

Workaround:
Repair the file with ghostscript

gs \
  -o repaired.pdf \
  -sDEVICE=pdfwrite \
  -dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress \
   corrupted.pdf

I got this error when I try to read pdf from s3. later I found that there is some unexpected unicode character apostrophe in pdf content. What I did is to replace apostrophe with "’" then read agian, it works fine.
so before you pass the content
content = text.content("'", "’")

then pass content to file reader.
not sure apostrophe cause this issue but it works for me. Please try this approach and let me know it works or not.

Can somebody create a minimal Python script that shows the issue with the shared PDF?

The comment by @AzizieAbuduaini indicates that it might be related to #384

As here is not PDF to check, I assume that #924 has fixed this issue. I'll release the new PyPDF2==2.1.0 today.

Please ping me if you still encounter this issue with 2.1.0 or later.
