What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. pdf2djvu -o example.djvu example.pdf

Clear lettering / scrambled letters (see the attached screenshots)

Addendum: I just noticed that the outline is being displayed correctly with djvusmooth - but looks broken in DJview (my default djvu application). I guess it might be a viewer problem (?)

Interesting. Could you send me the PDF file in private mail?

[jwilk]

Alternatively, could you attach output of this command?

djvused -e print-outline example.djvu

Apparently the outline titles contains CR characters, which makes DjView unhappy.

I could probably teach pdf2djvu to replace all control characters with spaces. Hopefully nobody would miss them.

Apparently, the DjView-dev solved the problem. Thanks for your contribution :-)
