PDF test case with Type3 fonts

A PDF with Type3 fonts embedded does not show the selected text properly.  It shows a blue rectangle instead of highlight the text.  This is with poppler-glib-demo (b72c02d1a2e) from Sep 13, 2012.

Hovering the selection shows that poppler gets the text correctly.  Acroread shows the selected text correctly.

FWIW, this is a different bug than https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6923
