This is the original document. Works in KDE3 kpdf, Google docs, ghostscript and
Acrobat Reader (Windows). 

My wife recently started a study English Philology. When opening a certain PDF
in okular, she was missing characters. The character in question looks like a
question mark, but without space between the top part and the dot (will attach
files). On the same system, kpdf of KDE3.5 (based on XPDF itself, I believe)
shows the characters without problem (so it's not a font problem). Also,
uploading the PDF to Google Docs, you can see the characters. I'd rather not
install kpdf or acrobat reader on her notebook, due to all the dependencies
(it's a KDE4 only notebook now). Please check the attachments (original PDF and
screenshot).

btw, I first sent this bug to bugs.kde.org and they acknowledged the bug but
claim it to be a poppler bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=171365
