I had an almost identical problem a while ago. I know the problem happened in Skim. I am pretty sure the problem did NOT happen in Preview. However, I do think the problem happened in the "PDF Browser Plugin" from Schubert|it.
The problem was that Skim wasn't rendering BOLD text. In fact, every time the PDF file was updated (with a new LaTeX run), Skim would toggle between showing bold and not showing bold. Opening the document in Preview was fine. I'm guessing that the PNG that was linked from this thread also showed bold characters not being rendered. I was going to submit a bug report, but after opening and closing the document a few times, the problem went away, and I haven't noticed in since. --Ted Christiaan Hofman wrote: > Rendering is done by Apple's PDFKit, so this is almost certainly a > PDFKit problem, which we cannot fix. > This may be an encoding problem.
