Andreas, I'm using the trunk version. When I commented out the W/W* lines from PageDrawer.properties, the missing text started rendering (yeah!), but the text is drawn in the wrong typeface (boo!).

Thus words are overlapping. This might provide a clue about what's broken in the clipping-operators. I don't know. I think that if you get the right typeface the clipping problem will become undetectable. (The PDF in question was created using LiveCycle, so the designer made sure the words didn't overlap.) I don't know if you got the PDF attachment, but I believe it is a 1.5 PDF, not a 1.7 PDF.

I am attempting to use PdfBox to print the attached PDF...
What version of pdfbox are you using? If it is the trunk version:
Try to disable the clipping-operators by commenting out the W/W* in the 
PageDrawer.properties file, because there are still some issues concerning this 
feature (see [1] for more details).

older version:
Is it possible to switch to the trunk version?
