Unable to find 'endstream' marker for obj starting at 13367

When executing this piece of code:

from pypdf import PdfReader,PdfWriter
import traceback

try:
    input_pdf = PdfReader(dwnld_filepath)
    output_pdf = PdfWriter()
    image = input_pdf.pages[0]
    output_pdf.add_page(image)
    output_pdf.write(file_path)
except Exception as e:
    traceback.print_exc()

This is the complete traceback I see:

I'm the maintainer of pypdf (and PyPDF2).

The Traceback indicates that your PDF is broken. You can verify that with PDF validators like https://www.pdf-online.com/osa/validate.aspx

Although pypdf can deal with many issues, it will never be able to deal with all kinds of broken PDF documents.

You can repair PDF documents: How can I fix/repair a corrupted PDF file?
