I am not so sure whether this is the same or a related issue:
The PDF document attached is displayed by libpoppler based viewers (I tested 
evince and epdfview) with all bold and cursive text.
Note that the documents suggests the fonts "Courier" and "Courier-Oblique" 
(both are no embedded).

$ fc-match "Courier"
n022003l.pfb: "Nimbus Mono L" "Regular"

Nimbus Mono L Regular would be a perfect substitute, since I don't have a font 
named 'Courier'.
Although the viewer uses a font that looks like Nimbus (and most likely is), 
but renders all text in bold and oblique.

Compare this to the rendering of xpdf (which does handle this
correctly).

Since the correct font is suggested by fontconfig, I am almost sure that
this must be an issue with libpoppler handling something the wrong way.
