Public bug reported:
When printing from https://news.ycombinator.com/ from Firefox or Chrome
cups-pdf mangles fonts. The output is readable but ugly. It worked OK
on 12.04
This seems to be a general problem printing pages using certain fonts
(TrueType?) . In case of HN the site specifies Verdana, which gets
rendered using DejaVuSans/LiberationSans on stock Ubuntu.
Note that both on 12.04 and 16.04 the workflow seems to involve
pdf->ps->pdf roundtrip. In 16.04 it just does more damage.
