I don't know about the plugin, it's a hand-made minimal example to show the 
developers that this line causes the problem:
/Differences [65 /B /C /D /Gamma]

When the text is not selected, the differences array is used, and evince 
displays
BCDΓ
When the text is selected, the differences array is not used, and evince 
displays
ABC<artifact>

Notice the change from BCD to ABC.

Acrobat (on Windows - not the Reader) read the attachment OK, but probably some 
things like the xref table are broken (I wasn't willing to count byte indices 
by hand!).
Evince automatically reconstructs the table though, so other programs reading 
the .pdf or not are not the point here, I just tried to pinpoint when the 
problem occurs to make it easier for the developers to fix it.

I can fix the xref table if it's required, but I don't think it
matters...
