Yes, that is to be expected. The "text" on it is all represented as 
soft (alpha) masked bitmaps, though only two values are used in the 
mask: fully on and fully off, so a normal binary mask would have been 
sufficient. !PDF ignores soft masks, so you just see the actual 
bitmap, which is a box of solid colour.

The same happens in ArtWorks, the main difference being that with 
warnings enabled ArtWorks tells you that the soft masks of lots of 
bitmaps were ignored.
