Describe the bug https://hypothesis.zendesk.com/agent/tickets/11996

A user linked to an annotation on a very large PDF (505 pages). Clicking the link brings you part way through the book, and repeated clicks on the Annotation Card keep bringing you closer to the selected text until you finally get there.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to https://hyp.is/MbcuPODfEeq1KK8Tm4ihig/weather.rsmas.miami.edu/bmapes/http/pagestuff/Atmospheric_Science-Wallace_Hobbs.pdf
  2. Note where you end up in the book.
  3. Click on the annotation card.
  4. repeats steps 2 & 3 until you reach the selected text.

This seems to be an intermittent error.

Expected behavior Opening the link and/or clicking on the annotation card should bring you directly to the selected text in the PDF.
