Can you constantly reproduce it? I figured what is the issue with the attached combined.pdf but I can't manage to reproduce it with the given inputs, either in Linux or Win10

I originally tried it twice and it produced the same problem. However, now that I try again it produces a file that is readable with all the viewers above.

Ok, please let us know if you manage to reproduce it. I also tried to follow the code and see if I could find a scenario where it happens but I couldn't find any so it's kind of a strange issue
