Thank you for your comment.
Do you/does anyone know if there is another bug filed for that Type 3 fonts
rendering issue?

Same problem here, bad rendering for (most) PDF files on Evince which
work well on acroread, kpdf, gv, etc. Btw I'm using a Feisty machine
(Breezy->Dapper->Edgy->Feisty upgrade). PS, DVI files work fine.

It's not the same bug. The document you attached uses Type 3 fonts,
which in theory are drawn using Postscript (not PDF) primitives, but
in practice are just bitmaps. Ghostview and Acrobad do a fine job with
these, but poppler-based readers don't handle them well at all.
The issue being discussed
This is the actual PDF file the above screenshots were taken with.

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
I see a lot better rendering now. I don't see any relevant entries in
the poppler changelog though, so maybe it's something local.

For the record, the fix that works for me is to change the
#ifdef...#else...#endif block beginning at line 179 of file
SplashFTFont.cc as follows:
// if we have the FT2 bytecode interpreter, autohinting won't be used
// MS: actually, disregard bytecode setting, as it yields poor results anyway
Sorry, my "fix" was bogus. I checked the results with a TeXmacs-produced
PDF, which apparently includes different fonts than what e.g. pdfetex
does. The TeXmacs fonts look fine. (I wonder why.)

Yes, I did exactly the same, and it works (except that it needs to be
redone every time poppler gets updated...)
Is there any chance of getting the fix incorporated? M

I was unable to fix the rendering in evince by tweaking those
fontconfig-config options. For me, so far only modifying SplashFTFont.cc
and recompiling has improved the rendering.
The problem is worst at small font sizes (attachment).

That's what I did, additionally running dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-
config to make sure the hinter type is "native" instead of autohinter.

Please specify which crufty config.
I am running on feisty, and the following:
dpkg --force-depends --purge fontconfig-config
rm -rf /etc/fonts
apt-get -f install fontconfig-config
rm -rf $HOME/.font*
did not fix the problem for me.

I had some crufty config enabling the freetype autohinter. Cleaning that
up fixed this bug for me.

FWIW, I still see bad rendering of serif fonts in Evince on Feisty.

I think I nailed it!
First of all, the exact same issue arises in Edgy, which is what I am
using now. However, it's easy to fix.
Second, it's a poppler problem, not an Evince problem per se.
See file splash/SplashFTFont.cc in poppler-0.5.4 (the Edgy version),
lines 180 and following. This is whe
