I could not find any problems with corrupted text. Reproduced the steps exactly and used Liberation Serif and Linux Libertine G fonts. Version: 6.0.0.2 (x64) Build ID: 06b618bb6f431d27fd2def25aa19c833e29b61cd CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0; UI render: default; Locale: bg-BG (bg_BG); Calc: group

Do you experience the same problem if you paste the copied text in another text editor? Set status to NEEDINFO, please set it back to UNCONFIRMED once requested informations are provided.

Created attachment 139238 [details] PDF file with FreeSerif that looks good
Created attachment 139239 [details] Text output after copy and paste from the PDF file with FreeSErif
Created attachment 139240 [details] PDF file with Time New Roman - copy and paste text from it works
Created attachment 139241 [details] Original ODT file created with LO 6.0.0.2
The problem is still reproducible here. Steps: 1. Create ODT file 2. Export ODT to PDF with LO 6.0.0.2 in Windows 10 3. Copy text from the PDF file and paste it in a new ODT file. Result: The text is messed up as can be seen in the attached file with the name LO6-PDF-copy-text-corrupt-output.odt It is also messed up when the text is pasted in Wordpad in Windows or in KWrite in openSUSE 42.3 Doing the same with LO 5.3.4.2 in openSUSE 42.3 gives the expected result: the text is the same as in the PDF file after copy & paste.
putting back to UNCONFIRMED as steps have been provided in comment 7

Confirmed under Ubuntu 16.04 with LO 5.4.4, LO 6.0.1.0.0+ and the current master. No problem if the font used is Caladea but same problem with Ubuntu font. The problem is also seen when importing the pdf with LibreOffice Draw. Best regards. JBF
WorksForMe now in master. I guess a dupe of Bug 115117. Please test with 6.0.4.
