This is probably a stupid question, but is your PDF rendering text or an image, such a a scanned-in page, or text rendered to an image before being imported into the PDF? I'm not quite sure how you can check that. If your copy of Acrobat has the capability, can you perform an OCR on the document?

I am trying to use the csplit file on a file that contains records that have more than 2048 characters on a line. The resultant split file seems to ignore the rest of the line and I lose the data.
Is there any way that csplit can handle record lengths greater than 2048?

HOCR2PDF(1) ExactImage Manual HOCR2PDF(1)
NAME
hocr2pdf - hOCR to PDF converter of the ExactImage toolkit
SYNOPSIS
hocr2pdf [option...] {-i | --input} input-file {-o | --output} output-file
hocr2pdf {-h | --help}
DESCRIPTION
ExactImage is a fast C++ image processing library. Unlike many other library frameworks it allows operation in several color spaces and bit
depths natively, resulting in low memory and computational requirements.
hocr2pdf creates well layouted, searchable PDF files from hOCR (annotated HTML) input obtained from an OCR system.
OPTIONS
-i file, --input file
Read image from the specified file. Note that input hOCR is read from the standard input.
-o file, --output file
Save output PDF to the specified file.
-n, --no-image
Don't place the image over the text. By default the text layer is hidden behind the image.
-s, --sloppy-text
Sloppily place text, group words, do not draw single glyphs.
-r n, --resolution n
Override resolution of the input image to n dpi. The default resolution (if not specified in the input file) is 300 dpi.
-h, --help
Display help text and exit.
EXAMPLE
$ hocr2pdf -i scan.tiff -o test.pdf < cuneiform-out.hocr
