PDF Text changing and getting mirrored when extracting text

Aspose.PDF Product Family

Hi,

We have the situation where some text is being mirrored in PDFs processed by Aspose PDF .Net.

When we try to extract the text from the document is causes the original PDF to be changed.

This happen is we use:

PdfExtractor

PdfExtractor extractor = new PdfExtractor();
extractor.BindPdf(pdfDocument);
extractor.ExtractText(Encoding.UTF8);

or

TextAbsorber

TextAbsorber textAbsorber = new TextAbsorber();
pdfDocument.Pages.Accept(textAbsorber);

So instead of the file looking like:
A Title
A Sub Title
Country In €
GSB Deutschland 77,133,428.00 €

We get:
A Title
A Sub Title
Country In €
dstnuaDec lBGhS € 00.824,331,77

Attached is a sample to reproduce the issue.
