Research direction
Start with the reported uploadFile function and trace the Parser::parseFile($tempPath) call, using the error title and the uploaded PDF input to establish a reproducible failure. Done means the cause is confirmed and the issue has either a verified library fix or a clearly documented non-library cause.
