Reporting Possible Defect with Extra Characters being displayed in Fund Fact Sheet PDF

[Clark, Scott]

Hello All,

Just wanted to report a potential defect, I'm hoping someone may be able to triage and post to the bug tracking system for me, as I have not used it. In general I find pdf.js works well, so keep up the good work!

When I look at the pdf file below, pdf.js seems to render some characters which aren't actually supposed to be there. For instance, in the title "Dow Jones Target Date Indices", it is rendered as "Dow (D-J)ones Target (G-D)ate (G-I)ndices", where the (D-J) characters overlap. Please also see the attached screenshot. This seems to happen for all text in the document, but there are some numbers (inside various tables), which don't seem to be affected.

I am using Firefox 39 on my Windows 7 Professional machine at work. In the Firefox Add-ons -> Extensions page, I don't see pdf.js listed, which I'm guessing means I'm using the version of pdf.js that is attached to Firefox 39.

I first noticed the issue with the built in version, but then installed the dev version, 1.1.366 and it still seems to occur.

I am not subscribed to the mailing list, so the best way to contact me is by my personal email, scla...@gmail.com<mailto:scla...@gmail.com>.

Thank you!
