I've got a CentOS7 server that I am printing reports from as PDFs. No
matter which font or style I use I get occasional anomalies where

mental.

It's very random. Sometimes it's ok. the next report will come out bad.
There's no real pattern I can identify. I've been going at it for a few
days trying different font types and styles but they are all very hit and
miss. I can't work out if it is Cairo, Cups or something else. From the
print card dialogue I get the same issue. I'm so tired and frustrated from
trying to sort it out. Anyone have a fix/workaround/suggestion?
It's been a while since I've seen that, but when I did it was with an
older stack brought forward through many versions to v9.
IIRC I replaced the fields that showed the issue one by one until the
problem went away.
