The developers don't care about naming it "un-editable" or "badly working". I
totally agree with your POV but that does not spare us from fixing import
issues. If reported in an actionable way, which is not the fact here. Something
like "word wrap not correctly applied" could work (to my knowledge we cannot
read the font from PDF and it will never be pixel-perfect aka not an editor;
PDF is a lossy format).

As for the UX I don't see what we could contribute.

@Eyal, please keep an open and friendly tone in comments.
