I don't think there really as any bug here to be fixed, unless there is
a better font that should be substituted on your system. It appears the
problem with these two documents is due to the fonts you have on your
systems.

The original document was written in 'Courier New' but you do not have
it installed so instead of just not rendering it on your screen at all
OOo had to substitute the fonts with as close as was available.

Your PDF has the following fonts embedded:

NimbusMonL-Bold
NimbusMonL-Regu
NimbusRomNo9L-Regu
NimbusMonL-ReguObli
DejaVuSans-Bold

Her PDF has the following fonts embedded:

CourierNewPS-BoldMT
CourierNewPSMT
LiberationSerif
CourierNewPS-ItalicMT

My system has the same fonts as her system so Original.doc ends up
looking the same as her PDF on my system.

On Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid) running off CD it uses these fonts for the
PDF, and looks at least very similar to her and my pdf's:

LiberationMono-Bold
LiberationMono
LiberationSerif
LiberationMono-Italic
DejaVuSans-Bold

It may have been in the past that /etc/fonts had bad mappings for
Courier New to use Nimbus Mono  L instead of Liberation Mono or maybe
the Liberation fonts weren't installed by default which could cause it
to map as follows (I think) Courier New -> Courier -> Nimbus Mono L

** Changed in: openoffice.org (Ubuntu)
