You mean they are too narrow?

Yes, exactly.
Also, Xpdf displays them properly.

Comment 3 Albert Astals Cid 2009-06-29 14:22:02 UTC

The problem is:
 * Using non embedded fonts
 * Incorrectly reporting the width of the 'm' letter for that font

So as it's a non embedded font we compare the width of the 'm' letter of the font we are really using with the width that the pdf says and scale it. As result of the pdf incorrectly reporting the width we scale it too much and the font becomes incredibly thin.

No idea how we can solve this
