Posted in the downstream bug report by the original bug reporter on 17th September 2014: 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 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/667752 Title: Non-embedded standard fonts in PDF files are not displayed/rendered correctly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/evince/+bug/667752/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

The first problem is caused by the code that adjusts the size of text drawn with a substituted font to match the width in the pdf file. This code matches the width of the letter 'm' in the font with the width in the pdf file. The problem in this case is the pdf file has bogus widths for characters not used included the letter 'm'. The attached patch fixes this by using the first letter of each string to set the font size. The second problem is a cairo bug. In this case the pdf file is stroking the outline of a Type 3 font. Each glyph in the Type 3 font strokes a path. Cairo needs to implement stroke to path to make this work correctly.

PDFLib had a java-library, so I took the liberty of creating a sample. See for yourself an compare in Adobe Reader, xPDF and Evince. ** Attachment added: "PDF sample for Evince" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/667752/+attachment/1719198/+files/hello.pdf -- Non-embedded standard fonts in PDF files are not displayed/rendered correctly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/667752 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 667752] Re: Non-embedded standard fonts in PDF files are not displayed/rendered correctly
I think I'm a bit closer in understanding the issue. Thanx to Marcel's PDF creations (thank you Marcel, very appreciated), I've had a file for comparison. As I suspected, there is an "encoding"-problem or maybe rather an "encoding-interpretation"-problem. When creating a PDF through PostScript, the issue becomes "ironed" out, so this issue only arises when creating PDFs directly (like on-demand, streaming PDF's on the internet). My guess is that when Evince encounters an encoding that hasn't been implemented or can't be read, it assumes the encoding should be "Identity-H" (see the following links) http://indesignsecrets.com/cid-identity-h-fonts-are-back.php http://www.talkgraphics.com/showthread.php?33648-What-is-identity-H Where as xPDF and Adobe Reader, either has the encoding implemented or assumes the encoding is "Custom", but display it as "Ansi". Evince displays it as "Identity-H" an tries to draw the text/letters as some weird font or attached vector-graphics image. So there is probably two issues ...one is the PDF creation, which is not always done "beautifully" ...two is the rendering, which doesn't always account for PDF-format discrepancies. But either way, I would still recommend that the interpretation of discrepancies in Evince should be the same as Adobe Reader and xpdf. (even though I'm a believer of creating data-files according to their definition as agreed) For further testing, you would proberly need to create a PDF that uses the non-embedded fonts AND is created directly, without using any form of PostScript.

Thank you very much Marcel for you sample and your help. Can you generate one more PDF that also includes the Helvetica-Bold font (type 1) ?. So all three mentioned fonts are there. Just to be sure.

Hi, I can't reproduce your issue here (Ubuntu 10.10). Attached is a (latex-generated) file with Times Roman and Helvetica but not using font embedding. The file renders fine. ** Attachment added: "times_helvetica.pdf" https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/667752/+attachment/1715619/+files/times_helvetica.pdf -- Non-embedded standard fonts in PDF files are not displayed/rendered correctly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/667752 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 667752] Re: Non-embedded standard fonts in PDF files are not displayed/rendered correctly
The best I can provide for now is info on the issue as I haven't been able to find another online generated PDF file that doesn't use Embedded fonts. The "Example.pdf" you've attached to this issue is using Embedded-fonts ... AND ... the embedded fonts are not Times Roman or Helvetica (only their linux substitutes). But if you can generate or create a PDF-document with the following three non-embedded fonts - "Times Roman"(type 1), "Helvetica"(type 1) and "Helvetica-Bold"(type 1) ... and show that all three texts inside the document are displayed the same in both Adobe Reader and Evince ... then the bug is something else. However I'm not able to use OpenOffice Writer to create examples as it will embed the fonts and/or insert the substitute fonts. If you have a method for generating PDFs, that can allow me to select the non-embedded fonts, then plz let me know and I'll make an example available in this bug-report. -- Non-embedded standard fonts in PDF files are not displayed/rendered correctly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/667752 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

corax, thank you for reporting this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. In Maverick, opened a new OOo Writer document, created text with Helvecta & Times New Roman fonts, exported as PDF, looks good in both Adobe Reader & Evince (please see attached PDF file & screenshot). As per our IRC discussion, please attach a PDF file that demonstrates the reported problem and toggle the status to new.

[Bug 667752] [NEW] Non-embedded standard fonts in PDF files are not displayed/rendered correctly
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: evince When viewing PDF files with text that uses the fonts "Times Roman" or "Helvetica", the text looks bad and sometimes unreadable. The same files opened and displayed in Acrobat Reader (acroread) or XPdf (xpdf) shows the fonts perfectly. As some of the text is completely unreadable and Evince being the default PDF viewer in Ubuntu its become a serious bug. I hope that someone out there can help.
