The X display used shouldn't make a difference - font problems in X will likely affect other apps using the same fonts too.

amd64-specific bug in XPDF based programs?

I'm running amd64 as my primary machine now so I just joined this list. I see corrupted text in the PDF mentioned in the bug report. However I see the same in xpdf on i386 too. My three scenarios: 1. amd64 xpdf, amd64 X server 2. i386 xpdf (in chroot on amd64), amd64 X server 3. i386 xpdf (native), on a Windows X server All of these seem to corrupt the text. I forwarded the report upstream but it would be useful to have others confirm my observation.
