A zipped sample PDF and image of relevant portion of PDF when affected by the

Description of problem:

How reproducible:
Successfully reproduced by two people independently.
Steps to Reproduce:

3. Observe the missing characters in the second paragraph from the top of the
page.

See attached image.
