Listed under "Source package missing source" on the FTP master's reject FAQ¹: "Source packages are part of the distribution. As such source must be present for all files in the source package itself, this includes convenience copies of other projects." I think this applies whether or not the file is used in the binary package. The source for that PDF is not included, making it not DFSG free. ¹ https://ftp-master.debian.org/REJECT-FAQ.html
