A PDF of a PPTX file

On p.52 of the attached PDF, the title is drawn incorrectly at some magnifications larger than 100%, the exact magnification depends on which program/library is being used (acroread, xpdf, epfdview, evince, …). 

One of the reviewers of GNOME bug (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=792943#c7) commented that the characters are being drawn twice, but that you might still want to Do the Right Thing (tm) and draw the characters so they overlay each other exactly … when you have the spare time, of course ;-)

Please include a screenshot of what you mean by "drawn incorrectly" so we don't have to guess.

I'm honestly not sure how this is a bug if every single renderer behaves the same, it would just mean the pdf is broken, but i won't close the bug since at the moment i really don't have time to investigate it and give formal proof.
