Example PDF

The current version of pdftotext (0.59.0) doesn't extract the bolded &
underlined text out of attached pdf when -raw is used. For example, notice that
'Equipment Group 202A' is missing from the pdftotext -raw output. Confirmed
behavior on Mac, Ubuntu 14, Ubuntu 16, and Alpine Linux.

On the other hand, we tried with version 0.24 (or version 3.03, which doesn't
show The Popper Developers in the -v output, it only shows "Copyright 1996-2011
Glyph & Cog, LLC"), and those versions do have 'Equipment Group 202A' and
generally produce better output.
