I'm afraid the PDF file contains non-ASCII character of circled R in metadata for pdf:Creator.

Thank you for a convincing demonstration to deny yourself.

Metadata? Is that what we're talking about? Not the contents of the text?

A different PDF creation program other than Word might not insert the registered-trademark symbol anyway. Or it could be edited out, if this is truly a deal-breaker. But I thought the contents were what was important. PDF is a binary format and there are lots of other bytes in this file with the high bit set, if we want to bring that up too.
