I assume you mean 'pdftotext'. I can reproduce the error with pdftotext,
pdftoppm, and pdftocairo. Ghostscript and acroread open the file without errors
or warnings.

I had a look at where the error is coming from and it turns out it is in the
check for linearized files in Linearization::Linearization. This function
checks if the first object in the file after the header is a Linearization
dictionary. The problem is this function has disabled the 'allow streams' flag.
As a result when opening a PDF file where the first object is a stream results
in the error due to trying to parse the stream as if it were not a stream.
