Bug Description
Just downloaded my credit card statement PDF and opened it with evince. Fonts are all messed up. Tried mupdf; also messed up. Opened it in Chrome, everything is fine. See attached screenshots of how a particular paragraph in the PDF looks in Chrome, evince, and mupdf.
Also tried loading the PDF gimp, it's rendered wrong there like in evince. Same with xournalpp.
Mupdf is close to correct but I think I think Chrome is doing a better job.
Made sure all packages were up-to-date and rebooted, didn't help.

Thank you for your bug report. Is there any chance you could try to get a small example not including private informations? You could perhaps try to use 'pdfseparate' to extract one page of the document if there are any without private data and see if that also show the issue?
