Beginners' Questions Importing PDF Pages - Blank pages

    I am using a Windows based Surface Pro.  Inkscape version 1.0.2-2.

    I have been importing PDF pages with no problem for patterns I use for bag making.  However, one PDF file I import only shows blank pages.  I assume it may be a setting in that particular PDF file but I can't figure it out.  I have attached a pic of a PDF file showing the good pages and a pic of the problem PDF import with blank pages.

    Thanks for any help!

    What happens when a page (from the blank preview) is imported?

    Thank you.  I hadn't tried to open one since it was blank.  I just tried and I get an error message and Inkscape closes.  I have attached a screenshot of the error message.

    Looks like Inkscape's file import program does not like the accent in the filename.  I'd try changing the filename to BAG.pdf before importing.
