Screenshot
When displaying the attached PDF document using a Poppler-based viewer such as
Evince, all characters are replaced by boxes (see screenshot). As other PDF
viewers such as Firefox/PDF.js, Google Chrome, MuPDF, Adobe Reader display it
correctly, I suppose it is a poppler bug. The bug can also be reproduced by
using utils/pdftocairo -pdf and then viewing the output with a
non-poppler-based viewer.
The affected PDF file was created by the online interface of the German
self-publishing platform epubli.de from my original document, so I do not
exactly know which software they used for that.
My test environment:
Debian GNU/Linux 7.8 (wheezy) (x86)
Evince/GNOME Document Viewer 3.4.0
Poppler 0.18.4-6 (from Debian)
Poppler 0.34.0
Poppler Git commit 1aa2f6e8a41a6a86dc02bf7c5cbc62355e780961
All tested poppler versions are affected. I verified it using
utils/pdftocairo -pdf broken.pdf out.pdf
$other_pdf_viewer out.pdf</pre>
