PDF test with umlauts

Forwarded from Gnome bugzilla. The following bug appears when using evince or
poppler-glib-demo to select/copy/paste selections:

When selecting stuff in pdf files I often end up with wrong selections when for
example german umlauts are involved. An example:


---
    a                                              a            Danach kann die
Be-
nutzerin aus allen Gruppen-IDs eine ausw¨hlen. Daraufhin wird ein Textfeld
angezeigt,
                                        a
---

correctly it would be:

---
Danach kann die Be-nutzerin aus allen Gruppen-IDs eine auswählen. Daraufhin
wird ein Textfeld angezeigt,
---


The pdf test case, provides a minimal (german) testcase. Pasting the first line
results in:

---
ao ̈
 ̈ ̈uß
---

The fonts are Type 1 and the bug reports contains the source in TeX which was
compiled with pdflatex.
