Works fine on windows .

Hi @FANGOD, and thanks for your interest in this library. I can confirm that the PDF also processes fine on Mac. Not sure what would be causing the issue w/ Linux but, in any case, the stacktrace seems to indicate that the error stems from pdfminer (the lower-level library we use to extract the PDF's structural information and objects) rather than pdfplumber. For that reason, I'm closing this issue. If you'd like, however, you can open an issue in the pdfminer repository; I would recommend pasting or attaching a minimal Python script that fully reproduces the problem. Something like:

import pdfminer
from pdfminer.high_level import extract_text
print(f"pdfminer version {pdfminer.__version__}")
extract_text('small-Bitdefender-Whitepaper-Virt-CIO-A4-en-EN-screen-compressed.pdf')

... assuming that this does reproduce the problem on Linux.
