Preview.app: Displaying Junk Text

Hi folks,

I have happily been using Preview for the last few years on my system; it's having a non-bloatware pdf reader.

However, recently (the last few days) Preview has been displaying junk text where is use to display actual document! The problem is very strange and seems to come and go. For example, I just opened a file that displayed junk a minute ago and now it looks fine.

Any ideas?

The .pdf documents are fine, the open on linux and on mac with adobe's reader. Seems to be a problem with Preview.

Cheers,

Dan
