Your PDF starts with
{code}

Content-Disposition: form-data; name="fileData";
filename="514bf860-d583-494c-bb0b-68e8167bba53.pdf"
Content-Type: application/pdf
{code}
and ends with

which indicates a bad MIME extracting tool. Did you receive this file from a
client or did you extract it yourself? A coworker (great guy) wrote such a tool
in perl and cursed a lot. Years later (he had quit) I rewrote such a tool
myself in java with additional features and I quickly understood his pain.
I'm asking because if you wrote that tool yourself, or if you have influence on
whoever wrote it, the whole problem would be moot.
