If it shows /usr/local/share instead of /usr/share, it is coming from a package that you installed rather than a package that came with the distribution, and the problem could be customizations that you made to your system rather than problems with poppler. On Fedora 25, /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1/n022023l.pfb is provided by urw-fonts If it works for most people, the problem is probably something that you did to your system, and the easiest way to track it down might be getting the customized packages out of the path and then adding them back one by one until you find the one that causes the problem. You can use an strace command like the one below to see everything that pdffonts touches strace -e trace=open pdffonts file.pdf 2>&1 | less Could you check that you have your distribution's fonts installed, then temporarily rename /usr/local to get it off the path, and then try pdffonts again?
