I do not know if this is your exact issue however I an aware Intuit has made this fix / tool 

From the website Lacerte Help 

PDF and Component Repair Tools for Lacerte and ProSeries

Also in the Lacerte program (or App as the kids say these days) press F 10 and there is a PDF Repair icon available - it looks like an HP LaserJet with a jingle bell... as one does.
