Just noticed that the file size of my pdf was much bigger than yours so I checked my pdf export options (attached).
When I choose "JPEG compression" or "Reduce Image Quality" I get formula errors in the pdf - although they do not look the same as yours, rather than Arabic characters I get a rectangle character appearing in numerous places.

Try replicating my settings and seeing if you still have the same problem.
