[Bug 758676] Re: Text in exported PDF files is not displayed correctly with Courier10PitchBT-Roman

 

Alvin, while I was able to reproduce the error message in Adobe Reader
exporting the attached courtier10pitch.odt file to PDF using LibreOffice
Writer (please see attached screenshot.png), I was unable to reproduce
the dots where the letters were as per your courier10pitch.pdf
attachment displays.

Could you please provide detailed, step-by-step instructions on exactly
how to create the PDF document so the dots show?

Procedure to reproduce the error message but not the dots:

Ubuntu 11.04 LibreOffice Writer via the Terminal:

cd ~/Desktop && wget
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/758676/+attachment/2030473/+files/courier10pitch.odt
&& lowriter -nologo courier10pitch.odt

Notice the words:

This line is Courier 10 Pitch.

has font Courier 10 Pitch.

Click File -> Export as PDF... -> Name: courier10pitch2 -> click Save
button

Open via the Terminal:

acroread courier10pitch2.pdf

Adobe Reader window pops up noting: "Cannot extract the embedded font
'Courier10PitchBT-Roman'. Some characters may not display or print
correctly."

Despite this one may see the fonts fine. This pdf opens in evince fine
and importing via Draw works fine as well.
