[Bug]: File generated by OCRmyPDF doesn't open in all PDF editors

Describe the bug

Hello! There was an interesting problem with a file Сертификат качества №3490 (опора 1У110-5+10, 2 шт.).pdf.

It opens only in PDF-XChange Editor 10.4.1.389, and does not open in either Foxit PDF Editor Pro 12.1.1.15289 or Acrobat Pro 2023.006.20360 (64-Bit). It seems to me that pikepdf saves in some pdf format that is not supported by other editors.

The algorithm for creating PDF is as follows:

Scan to MFP.
Manual processing in PDF-XChange Editor: rotating pages, changing page sizes to A4, A3 formats (sometimes PDFs with non-standard dimensions of several hundred mm are received from the MFP).
Next, in all PDFs in the folder I run optical text recognition using the ocrmypdf program (pikepdf is used by it to process pdf) with the command FOR /r %F IN (*.pdf) DO ocrmypdf -l eng+rus --rotate-pages --skip-text --optimize 1 --output-type pdf "%F" "%~fF"

After converting a page of a document in PDF-XChange Editor into an image and then saving it back to PDF, the file can be read by all editors.

But I still wonder what could be the reason for this behavior? Maybe someone can tell me?

P.S. I initially wrote about this behavior in the pikepdf issues, but they explained that this is not a consequence of the work of this program and this is more likely to turn out to be an OCRmyPDF issue.
