It is merely a one-bit-per-pixel graphic IMAGE of a page. What we see as characters are just 2D blobs of pixels. So there are technically NO letters at all, from a "bits and pixels" point of view. Random bugs are extremely unlikely to respect character boundaries as demonstrated in the examples. Hence, not just a random bug. This anomaly seems to be of intelligent design.
