Package: poppler-utils
Version: 22.12.0-2
Severity: minor

When I run pdftotext on the attached PDF file, I get

[...]
Texte texte texte texte texte texte texte
√texte texte... 24 texte texte texte texte (texte texte texte
t). Texte texte texte texte texte texte A telle que a < A,
[...]

The square root character √ should have been in front of the first A:
"[...] texte texte √A telle que a < A"
(as seen with a PDF viewer).
