A first chance exception of type 'System.FormatException' occurred in Syncfusion.SfPdfViewer.WinRT.DLL

Im getting this exception:
"A first chance exception of type 'System.FormatException' occurred in Syncfusion.SfPdfViewer.WinRT.DLL"

it happens when im in my main page, and press a tile that navigates to a new page that opens a pdf then go back to main page, and press tile again to open the same pdf
it doesn't allways happen, but when it does, its when i try to open the pdf a second time.


in my pdf page i have this section

public PdfPage()
        {
            this.InitializeComponent();
            //NavigationCacheMode = Windows.UI.Xaml.Navigation.NavigationCacheMode.Enabled; 
            this.DataContext = this;
        }



        protected override async void OnNavigatedTo(NavigationEventArgs e)
        {
            base.OnNavigatedTo(e);
            //DisplayInformation.AutoRotationPreferences = DisplayOrientations.Portrait;
            backButton.IsEnabled = false;
            backButton.Visibility = Visibility.Collapsed;
            document = e.Parameter as Document;


            if (document.Source == SourceType.Join)
            {
                pdfTrace.Visibility = Visibility.Collapsed;
                pdfShare.Visibility = Visibility.Collapsed;

            }


            var error = false;
            try
            {


                await GetFile();


                //DispatcherTimerSetup();
                await Task.Delay(2000);
                //await SetFileTraces("open", document.GetFullPath());
                backButton.IsEnabled = true;
                backButton.Visibility = Visibility.Visible;

            }
            catch (FileNotFoundException e1)
            {
                Debug.WriteLine("pdfpage.cs 87    " + e1.Message);
                error = true;
            }
            catch (Exception e1)
            {
                Debug.WriteLine("PDFpage.cs  90 " + e1.Message);
                ShowMessageDialog("Connection Lost!");
                Frame.Navigate(typeof(LoginPage));
            }

            if (error)
            {
                await new MessageDialog("The file does not exist!", "Error").ShowAsync();
                Frame.GoBack();
            }

        }


        private async Task GetFile()
        {
            try
            {
                backButton.IsEnabled = false;
                //IsLoading = true;

                var path = document.GetFullPath();
                byte[] bytes = null;

                if (document.Source == Enums.SourceType.Join)
                {
                    JoinService joinService = new JoinService();
                    string nameNoExt = document.Name.Remove(document.Name.Length - 4, 4);
                    string handle = document.Handle;
                    bytes = await joinService.GetFileAsync(handle);
                    Debug.WriteLine("JOIN");
                }
                else
                {
                    bytes = await gappService.GetFileAsync(path);

                }

                pdfDocument = new PdfLoadedDocument(bytes);
                pdfViewer.DocumentLoaded += (sender, e) =>
                {
                    try
                    {
                        pdfViewer.ViewMode = PageViewMode.FitWidth;
      
                    }
                    catch (Exception e1)
                    {
                        Debug.WriteLine("pdfpage.cs 128    " + e1.Message);
                    }
                };
                pdfViewer.LoadDocument(pdfDocument);

               
                backButton.IsEnabled = true;
            }
            catch (Exception e)
            {
                Debug.WriteLine("PDFPage   175  " + e.Message);
                
            }

        }

in my output window i get

"A first chance exception of type 'System.FormatException' occurred in Syncfusion.SfPdfViewer.WinRT.DLL
pdfpage.cs 128    Input string was not in a correct format."


in the exception stacktrace i have this

   "at System.ThrowHelper.ThrowArgumentException(ExceptionResource resource)
   at System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2.Insert(TKey key, TValue value, Boolean add)
   at System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2.Add(TKey key, TValue value)
   at Syncfusion.Windows.PdfViewer.PdfDocumentView.IncludeCanvas(Int32 pageIndex, Int32 width, Int32 height)
   at Syncfusion.Windows.PdfViewer.PdfDocumentView.<LoadPages>d__54.MoveNext()
--- End of stack trace from previous location where exception was thrown ---
   at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.AsyncMethodBuilderCore.<ThrowAsync>b__4(Object state)
   at System.Threading.WinRTSynchronizationContext.Invoker.InvokeCore()"

and my exception message is: ""Value does not fall within the expected range." and sometimes {"Value does not fall within the expected range."}

im using Syncfusion 8.1 Controls for WinRT XAML version 12.2.0.36
