PDFs are not displayed properly

[Wolfgang Pittermann]

Binary package hint: evince

A PDF document (generated with OpenOffice.org 2.3 Writer) is displayed properly, but when I start to highlight parts of the text, bold letters turn into normal letters and special characters (such as the Euro sign) are lost :-(

Happened on several occasions...
