Please 
- attach 
  -- a sample.odt document with a short text line in a common font
  -- a result.pdf document
- screenshots with comments if you believe that that might explain the 
  problem better than a text comment. Best way is to insert your screenshots
  into a DRAW document and to add comments that explain what you want to show
- contribute information concerning
  -- Really no problem with CALC, DRAW, IMPRESS?
  –- Libo settings that might be related to your problems 
  -- how you launch LibO and how you opened the sample document
  -- also a Problem with older LibO Versions?
  -- everything else crossing your mind

pdf with correct rendering

Hello,

Sorry, I added the files.

By the way, I realized that this error does occur with Helvetica font. Other sans-serif fonts like Arial does not have any problem. Or Georgia. I added another .pdf file with correct rendering.

Because it's a Mac bug I can't really reproduce, but
- Simply exporting from reporter's sample without Helvitica on my PC shows 
  several problems, letters from report are shown crippled and / or not italic
- switching font to Arial indeed solves the problem. 


@reporter:
Still waiting for info:
  -- Really no problem with CALC, DRAW, IMPRESS?
  -- also a Problem with older LibO Versions?

It seems I can't see a problem with "ç" in your "sample.pdf"

Can you please check whether Helvetica supports that characters? 
How does a print look?
How does a Postscript printout look?
How did you create your sample2.pdf "pdf with correct rendering"?

The problem persists with Calc, Impress and Draw. 

Yes, the problem used to exist within the older versions of Libre, at least two 3.4.x releases. 

Helvetica supports those characters, since I use them frequently with my native Mac OS X PDF exports and in other places throughout the system. 

I created the correct rendering by changing the font to "Georgia" and exporting the file as PDF. 

Sorry, but I do not have a printer, so I won't be able to reproduce the print. But I think it will look fine - I guess.

@Sophie, Thorsten
Any idea how we can proceed this one?

I had a similar problem with math symbol characters not being visible in exported PDFs; selecting 'Embed standard fonts' in the PDF export options dialog ('General' tab) solved the problem.

Issue persists on 3.5.0.

I cannot test this bug further because of Bug 66108.
