A4-sized page in color containing both images and text

I was attempting to print the attached file. The page gets cut off somewhere before the text starts. At this point I requested help from ask.libreoffice.org

Another user tried printing the file to Adobe PDF and got the following error:

    %%[ ProductName: Distiller ]%%
    NotoSansSymbols2-Regular not found, using Courier.
    %%[ Error: invalidfont; OffendingCommand: show ]%%
    Stack:

    %%[ Flushing: rest of job (to end-of-file) will be ignored ]%%
    %%[ Warning: PostScript error. No PDF file produced. ] %%

Please inform the LibreOffice version as in Help > About LibreOffice

Add the link to the question asked in ask.libreoffice.org

Attach the PDF produced by LibreOffice

IS this a LibreOffice issue or an Adobe Distiller issue?

Notably, I did not encounter an error, though maybe an error did occur and I just don't know where to view it.

I updated to LibreOffice version 26.2.3.2, issue still occurs. More info below.

Link to question: https://ask.libreoffice.org/t/my-print-is-coming-out-incomplete-it-gets-cut-off-somewhere-before-the-text/133023

I don't know how to figure out whether this is a LibreOffice issue or an Adobe Distiller issue. Could you please give me some pointers? I will also ask that question in the ask.libreoffice thread.

I have printed the file in Pdf FactoryPro and I have no errors.
But the symbols appear to me without color (in black and white)

The problem may be in the font of the symbols or font substitution
