Description: Writer gives error "General Error. General input/output error." when opening PDFs - any PDF that I have tried. 25.2.3 works fine with the same PDFs. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open Writer 25.2.4 2. File - Open - select any PDF file (fresh written empty page export-to-PDF from Writer itself will do the trick) Actual Results: Popup with error "General Error. General input/output error." is shown. Expected Results: It should open the PDF file.

Thanks you for your input. However, in safe mode, the same thing happens.
No problem in Windows Version: 26.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: cc99f7736e10c8290d34eeb96aa6a3b7fd63a212 CPU threads: 16; OS: Windows 10 X86_64 (build 19045); UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win Locale: ru-RU (ru_RU); UI: ru-RU Calc: CL threaded
I've tested this on 4 different macs now (all on 15.5 though) - 100% fail rate so far, all of which disappear using 25.2.3 instead.
Seeing a mention of network file storage in the linked ticket - just confirming here that the pdf in question is just on the user's local home directory.
Confirming with Version: 25.2.4.3 (AARCH64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: 33e196637044ead23f5c3226cde09b47731f7e27 CPU threads: 8; OS: macOS 15.5; UI render: Skia/Metal; VCL: osx Locale: fr-FR (fr_FR.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded The code signing characteristics mentions something about it being "thin" (not sure what that means within the code signing framework). Couldn't see any output on console when launching soffice from console, and trying to load a PDF. The same PDF loads just fine into Draw with LO 24.2.3.2. Altered the signing to be able to launch LO in lldb, but nothing produced there either, except for a rather laconic message : 2025-06-20 14:31:55.376653+0200 soffice[9354:376304] [INFO @ cvP11UILCB Main.m,18 5BDF0] CB_InitializeEx (Build info: "Dec 6 2021, 21:31:37") 2025-06-20 14:31:55.722624+0200 soffice[9354:376304] [CursorUI] ViewBridge to RemoteViewService Terminated: Error Domain=com.apple.ViewBridge Code=18 "(null)" UserInfo={com.apple.ViewBridge.error.hint=this process disconnected remote view controller -- benign unless unexpected, com.apple.ViewBridge.error.description=NSViewBridgeErrorCanceled} Marking as regression.
