OK - was able to reproduce the issue. If you use \r for line breaking it will not work. Same for combination with \r\n. You need to use \n alone.
I've created https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3461 to improve that in a future release. Currently you need to make sure that control characters other than \n are stripped out prior to setting the field value.
