I have kubuntu 9.04 on a 64bit machine.
I have a similar problem as above of bad font rendering with okular.
I need a quite large zoom factor in order to read the text decently.
With acrobat reader the font rendering can be improved through
Preferences/Page Display and selecting Smooth Text
Seems that there is enough evidence of this bug to mark it as confirmed.

Is this also the cause of the poor fonts I get in Okular with my tex-
generated documents? If not I will start another bug thread.
If it is, I wonder what file I should apply the patch to. I don't have
the SplashFTFont.cc file. I'm using Ubuntu and Gnome.

I fond the origin of the problem and a solution. The rendering propblem
occurs when you have all of the following:
1. TrueType bytecode interpreter enabled in the freetype library. (This
is a compile-time option which is off by default due to patent issues,
Ubuntu turns it on while Fedora does
I observe this bug too, both in kpdf (hardy) and okular (intrepid).
Rendering is especially bad for Cyrillic fonts in pdfs generated by TeX
(I guess this is because these fonts are bitmapped) but the problem
is visible with latin fonts too. This bug annoyed me for a long time and
I spent some time
I do not believe, that Jeremys example has anything to do with the bug
filed here.
However, I do experience the bug described by Jeremy. I suggest to move his
example to a new bug report. For this report I have one additional
contribution: You can can get an equally bad rendering in xpdf if you

Hi,
I made a simple test case.
In the attachment there are two latex files:
- example1.tex uses Latin Modern font (the new standard font in LaTeX);
- example2.tex uses Computer Modern.
In the attachment there are also two folders with pdfs created in
openSuse 10.2 and kubuntu 8.04, and a
I forget to say that:
- the problem is worse at 150% zoom;
- the problem is much worse when using Latin Modern fonts;
- to compile just do pdflatex exampleX.tex.

After having 4 people look at the screenshots the only thing we noticed for
sure is that Kubuntu uses a different font than the xpdf and fedora screenshot
of comment #2.
I tried the provided test PDF in Okular (KPDF replacement) and can honestly say
it renders quite well.
Thank you for
Harald,
Thanks for looking at this. I'm not sure i understand your comment
about using different fonts - the document has the font (Computer
Modern, the default LaTeX font) embedded in the file. I'm no
typographer, but the font itself is identical to me between those
screenshots; the difference
I just upgraded to Gutsy and the rendering is still poor. I haven't
done a side by side comparison to see if it was better than Feisty (it
might be slightly better), but it still looks inferior to kpdf on FC6,
for example.
I should note that kdvi on a file generated by LaTeX file looks great
Well, the kpdf devs told me they just made it incompatible with poppler
for this reason. Upgrading to KDE 3.5.7 on Feisty gets rid of the
problem.

I can also confirm this bug. I am using Ubuntu Feisty and an ATI card
with the proprietary fglrx driver.

I can confirm this on two installations of Feisty. The images provided
by Logan Lewis in the link above are representative for the (poor)
quality of rendering provided by kpdf on 7.04. On SuSE 9.3 and PCLinuxOS
2004 2004 kpdf-rendered documents look much like the FC6 image
provided by Logan (i.e.
I'd just like to add that that this occurs on more than the nvidia
binary driver. I'm running Feisty on a laptop with Intel graphics (955
chipset) running the i810 driver. PDF rendering via kpdf is still poor
on this setup.

This font problem in kpdf persists even in 6.10. Some files are
probably worse than others, but a very simple PDFLaTeX generated file
will demonstrate the problem. The more the document is zoomed out, the
worse the effect.
See http://www.proxc.com/kpdf/ for 4 files - a test pdf file, and
Could this be related to the kpdf poppler patches?
