test case
The attached PDF is a single page extracted from the 1999 C standard. Evince
3.12.2 renders it correctly *except* that every single 'fi' ligature has turned
into a blank space. Since the document makes heavy use of terms like
'identifier', 'specifier', 'qualifier', 'definition', and so on, this bug is,
although minor, exceedingly irritating. ;-) IIRC this also affects 'fl',
'ffi', and other common ligatures, but 'fi' is the only one on this page. Copy
and paste is not affected.
Older versions of Evince/Poppler rendered this document correctly; I do not
know exactly when it broke. Ghostscript 9.06 does render it correctly. It is
probably relevant that *none* of the fonts used are embedded (they are all from
the mandatory 17).</pre>
