Page 69 of ORelly-Running Linux 4th Edition.pdf

There is some missing text on page 69 of this PDF when rendered with
`pdftocairo -png`. A section near the bottom of the page should show "# fdisk
/dev/sda" but only the "#" is rendered. When run, pdftocairo prints the
following warning messages:

Syntax Error: Couldn't find trailer dictionary
Syntax Error (5853): Bad dynamic code table in flate stream
Syntax Error (5853): Bad block header in flate stream
Syntax Error: failed to load truetype font<0a>
some font thing failed
Syntax Error (5853): Bad dynamic code table in flate stream
Syntax Error (5853): Bad block header in flate stream
Syntax Error: failed to load truetype font<0a>
some font thing failed

pdftoppm renders the document correctly, though it also prints a warning that
it couldn't create a font. There seems to be a problem with a font in this
document and pdftoppm handles the error better than pdftocairo does.
