           Summary: kpdf uses wrong (ugly) fonts with some PDFs
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: i386
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: kpdf
        AssignedTo: jriddell at ubuntu.com
        ReportedBy: piquadrat+ubuntu at gmail.com

kpdf seems to use wrong fonts with some PDFs, while evince and xpdf use the
right (or better looking) fonts. Here are screenshots from a random pdf file I
got from google (http://www.ipcc.ch/pub/wg2SPMfinal.pdf):

This is on a brand new Kubuntu Breezy installation. It doesn't happen on an
OpenSuSE 10.0 Beta 1 installation (screenshot: http://tinyurl.com/akura), so
this is probabely (K)Ubuntu-specific.
