In this screen, I used the Inspector to made the text layer visible (changed text from transparent to green). On most lines, it is way out of alignment. No idea what is causing it, but I notice an issue was filed on Github and then closed for lack of an example. Perhaps this PDF should be used to re-open it.

I assume it is a duplicate of https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=903877

So this can be closed.
