The document specifies that these characters are math symbols and
poppler is doing what the document requests.  If you want it fixed,
you probably should complain to whoever created the document.

If there is still an interest I'll see if I can add an option to
pdftotext (does -convchars sound OK?  I'm terrible with names).  I
haven't had much free time, so it won't be until this weekend that I
can look at it.
