Error while trying to decompress stream in PDF

I'm trying to decompress a stream from a PDF Object in this file:

 4 0 obj
<< 
/Filter /FlateDecode
/Length 64
>>
stream
xœs
QÐw34V02UIS0´0P030PIQÐpÉÏKIUH-.ITH.-*Ê··×TÉRp
á T‰
Ê
endstream
endobj

I have this stream copy-pasted with the same format as in the original file in a file called Stream.file

xœs
QÐw34V02UIS0´0P030PIQÐpÉÏKIUH-.ITH.-*Ê··×TÉRp
á T‰
Ê

This stream should translate to: Donde esta curro??. Added that stream to a Stream.file in a C# Console application.

using System.IO;
using System.IO.Compression;

namespace Filters
{
    public static class FiltersLoader
    {
        public static void Parse()
        {
            var bytes = File.ReadAllBytes("Stream.file");
            var originalFileStream = new MemoryStream(bytes);

            using (var decompressedFileStream = new MemoryStream())
            using (var decompressionStream = new DeflateStream(originalFileStream, CompressionMode.Decompress))
            {
                decompressionStream.CopyTo(decompressedFileStream);
            }    
        }
    }
}

However it yields an exception whil trying to copy it:

The archive entry was compressed using an unsupported compression method.

I'd like how to decode this stream with .net code if it's possible.

Thanks.

The main problem is that the DeflateStream class can decode a naked FLATE compressed stream (as per RFC 1951) but the content of PDF streams with FlateDecode filter actually is presented in the ZLIB Compressed Data Format (as per RFC 1950) wrapping FLATE compressed data.

To fix this it suffices to drop the two-byte ZLIB header.

Another problem became clear in your first example document: That document was encrypted, so before FLATE decoding the stream contents therein have to be decrypted.

Drop ZLIB header to get to the FLATE encoded data

The DeflateStream class can decode a naked FLATE compressed stream (as per RFC 1951) but the content of PDF streams with FlateDecode filter actually is presented in the ZLIB Compressed Data Format (as per RFC 1950) wrapping FLATE compressed data.

Fortunately it is pretty easy to jump to the FLATE encoded data therein, one simply has to drop the first two bytes. (Strictly speaking there might be a dictionary identifier between them and the FLATE encoded data but this appears to be seldom used.)

in case of your code:

var bytes = File.ReadAllBytes("Stream.file");
var originalFileStream = new MemoryStream(bytes);

originalFileStream.ReadByte();
originalFileStream.ReadByte();

using (var decompressedFileStream = new MemoryStream())
using (var decompressionStream = new DeflateStream(originalFileStream, CompressionMode.Decompress))
{
    decompressionStream.CopyTo(decompressedFileStream);
}

In case of encrypted PDFs, decrypt first

Your first example file pdf-test.pdf is encrypted as is indicated by the presence of an Encrypt entry in the trailer:

trailer
<</Size 37/Encrypt 38 0 R>>
startxref
116
%%EOF

Before decompressing stream contents, therefore, you have to decrypt them.
