Looks like this is a display problem. It seems that certain fonts (monospace
fonts) were not displayed by the version of Evince included in OS 2008.05.
Evince likes to fuzz a number of PDFs. I too can't seem to nail the problems,

character spacing), and they all have been generated using FrameMaker. PDFs
generated using TeX/LaTeX are *usually* ok.
