The fonts 方正书宋_GBK 方正黑体_GBK 方正楷体_GBK and 宋体 are not embedded so we look for them in the system. Do you have them installed or do you have a substitution rule set for them?

I have these fonts on Windows but not on Ubuntu. But I don't know how to set the substitution rule on Windows, because these is no fontconfig on Windows.

The problem shows on both Windows and Ubuntu.

For windows we should pick the fonts from the "windows fonts dir" so it should work, but i have really no idea.

Maybe you could send me in private the fonts so i can give them a try in linux?

I test these files with evince on Fedora 16 Beta, and it works well.
