That PDF uses the hebrew chars of the arial font, but the font is not
embedded:
./utils/pdffonts -subst HW4.pdf

Therefore You need the unicode version of the arial font (and also arial
bold) and configure fontconfig to use this/these font/s, or You should
force the PDF generator to include the fonts!
Poppler doesn't deliver any fonts!
