This problem is still here in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS ... and it has become a serious 
matter.
More and more of my own customers are switching to Ubuntu, which is a positive 
thing IMO.  But with the increasing use of online web-services to handle 
billing, document exchanges and online-shopping ... more and more streaming-PDF 
files are being created on-the-fly as everyone is expected to be able to read 
that particular format.  But when people can't read the amount due on an 
invoice or the delivery-date on a webshopping receipt, because the 
font-rendering of the pre-installed document viewer in Ubuntu won't display 
them correctly (or sometimes not at all), it really becomes highly inconvenient 
for both regular users as well as more experienced user.  The Adobe Reader 
installation package is no longer available in ubuntu 14.04's standard 
repositories, which was a go-to option for the more experienced user.
SO BUCKLE UP PEOPLE, let's see if we can't fix this issue.  And hopefully 
before we use a couple of gigabytes on the web in forum- and chatlogs about the 
subject of creating temporary fixes and work-arounds of such a basic thing.

best of luck to all
