I don't know if this is related, but I'm also seeing absolutely atrocious font rendering with some PDF files in evince.
gpdf renders the same PDFs much better, but appears to use different fonts and ignore settings such as "bold". Please see the following two screenshot for comparison. Yes, this is the same document, in evince and in gpdf on Ubuntu 6.10. ** Attachment added: "Evince pdf screenshot" http://librarian.launchpad.net/7035137/Screenshot.evince.png -- Bad rendering (hinting) in Evince and Xpdf https://launchpad.net/bugs/26118 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
