Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Can't attach a file because of rights. But it happens with all tried files but one so far. I can't edit those files because of missing tools and those files where made by another Company. They all open fine in Adobe reader and SumatraPDF.

Without an example file where this crash happens, I can't fix it. What kind of rights error do you get when trying to add a file? I see that you have been successful uploading files in other bug reports; e.g., blender/blender#50276

@Howardt. I mean the pdf intellectual property. I'm not allowed because of laws if you prefer. The pdf where made with Autocad if I'm right, but I don't have it, so I can't send a dummy file with the problem.

tried to edit the pdf in another program, I removed enough things to make the pdf import, but it is now like rotated 180° on x axis (so it's up down)
On the left, Blender (Wrong) on the right, acrobat reader (right)

For this, I can attach a file:
but upside down.pdf

@matali23, we can only fix bugs which we can reproduce and for that we do need a .pdf file which demonstrates the issue. If you can't share original .pdf make a new one. That's really the only way we can solve the issue.

Mixing two issues in one report is also not the greatest idea.

Ok, I managed to get access to the computer producing the pdf files. Here is an example file: Ohne Titel1.pdf. It imports without problem in inkscape, photoshop, etc...

Thanks for the file. I tried importing it, and it did not crash.
Can you please tell me the version of the pdf importer that you have on your computer?
Under binary directory where blender lives, there should be a file like
2.77/scripts/addons_contrib/io_vector/init.py

It has a version number in it.
Also, maybe just upload the file pdf.py that is in that directory into this bug.
Thanks.

After updating to latest buildbot, the file "Ohne Titel1.pdf" imports correctly, but the original file still doesn't. Sorry for the bad example, will put as incomplete until I can make a simple example.
