Research direction

Obtain the reported interactive PDF, then open it in Xreader on Linux Mint 21.2 with xreader 3.8.5 and compare the result with LibreOffice. Confirm whether only the first two of 13 pages appear and whether editing is limited to those pages; done means all pages render and interactive editing works.
