PDF that  contains form fields

SUMMARY
I've attached a PDF that contains text fields that can be filled out. When
doing this using Okular I can enter German umlaute like äöü and the special
character ß, but once I switch back to the default view those characters are no
longer visible and something like "Straße"  becomes "Strae".

If I open the same PDF in Gnome's Evince the characters are shown as expected.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open PDF
2. Click "Show Forms"
3. Enter "Straße äöü"  in any of the fields
4. Press "Show Forms" again

OBSERVED RESULT
The text "Straße äöü" becomes "Strae "

EXPECTED RESULT
The text should be "Straße äöü"
