I was suspecting a library would be culprit in the bad rendering, but this doesn't seem the case, so, IMHO, I would file a bug with each viewer, so that each code gets fixed. Including a reference to the same bug happening with other PDF viewers would also be fine. Going the extra mile, I'd try this misterious PDF on other viewers (evince, epdfview...) and report bugs accordingly. But I'd really try to figure out weather it's not actually a font problem, or a different kind of issue (which would not belong in a discussion in debian-devel). > If d.devel.general is the wrong group, I beg you all pardon and would > be thankful for naming a proper group.
