--- Comment #2 from James Cloos <cloos at jhcloos.com> ---
Interesting.

GhostScript also is unable to open it, but mupdf can do so.

The mupdf src has this comment about /R 6:

/*
 * Compute an encryption key (PDF 1.7 ExtensionLevel 8 algorithm)
 *
 * Adobe has not yet released the details, so the algorithm reference is:
 *
http://esec-lab.sogeti.com/post/The-undocumented-password-validation-algorithm-of-Adobe-Reader-X
 */

That will be needed to handle this document.
