iPad not opening email attachments

Hello,


My iPad has recently stopped opening some email attachments with the error message ‘Couldn’t load file’ . It does this with both PDF and Word docs, but will open some of these documents - i’m not sure how it chooses which ones i can open - maybe file size? This happens across multiple emails from many different senders so is not a one-off problem.


i have attached two screenshots, both are PDFs from the same email - one is able to be opened and the other not. Is anyone able to let me know what the problem could be and how to sort it?


Many thanks

iPad, iPadOS 13
