A quick research showed that the issue might be due to a bug in the poppler 
based PDF utilities (and maybe in the Xpdf utilities as well). 
Could you post a PDF exhibitin this issue? I then could check if the issue 
has been fixed in the meantime (I'm using a relatively recent version of the 
poppler based utilites (0.18.3).
