In corrupt PDF documents Type3 fonts may introduce circular dependencies, thus resulting in the affected font(s) never loading and parsing/rendering never completing.
Note that I've not seen any real-world examples of this kind of font corruption, but the attached PDF document was rather found in https://github.com/pdf-association/safedocs/tree/main/Miscellaneous%20Targeted%20Test%20PDFs
*Please note:* That repository contains a number of reduced test-cases that are specifically intended to test interoperability (between PDF viewer) and parsing/rendering for various kinds of strange/corrupt PDF documents.
Some of the test-cases found there may thus not make sense to try and "fix" upfront, in my opinion, unless the problems are also found in real-world PDF documents.
