Status: Open
Priority: 3
Submitted By: Andrey Paramonov (pent)

Summary: Drops characters from included pdf figure
Category: PDF inclusion
Group: None
Resolution: Wont Fix
Initial Comment:
To reproduce:
1) Download attached file. It is a pdf figure containing some non-latin characters. Note that the used font subset is embedded.
2) Create the following minimal LaTeX document:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T2A]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[russian]{babel}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\begin{document}
\includegraphics{fig}
\end{document}
3) pdflatex it. Open the resulting pdf file and note that all non-latin characters have disappeared.
My pdflatex says:
---------
Running `LaTeX' on `test' with ``pdflatex "\nonstopmode\input
{test.tex}"''
This is pdfTeXk, Version 3.141592-1.40.3 (Web2C 7.5.6)
%&-line parsing enabled.

update: the link was wrong again; somehow a ';' was automatically inserted to the link.
Please see bug #2092 for a similar problem and workaround.

I guess the figure was created with a modified version of utmr8a.pfb (NimbusRomNo9L-Regu), since the original utmr8a.pfb doesn't have non-latin glyphs. This is not a bug of pdftex. For a workaround, please see
