(As discussed in
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/poppler/2010-May/005791.html)

It seems poppler is being unable to extract text in some PDF files (I'm not
attaching the file to this bug report due to its lenght):

http://iteisa.com/tmp/poppler-sample.pdf (11 Mb)

pdftohtml from poppler 0.12.4 and 0.12.2 is not able to extract the
text, and evince shows the document correctly but it's unable to select
it's text. However acroread shows and selects the text correctly (so
it's normal, editable text and not an image).

Everything seems ok with the file:
