PDF test case

Although similar to Bug 12881, it is not the same.

As reported in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evince/issues/737

When copying some texts with word hyphenation, the hyphen is literally copied, although it is just a symbol for human readability in the PDF file. I've attached an example PDF file -- you can reproduce this issue by copying all the texts in that file.
