[Bug 659280] Re: Chinese characters in PDFs without embedded fonts are shown as squares

 

xpdf is a very old X application, I did not use it since gpdf was
replaced by evince.

I just remember it does not use pango, and has it's own cMap.

So any change in fontconfig and poller-data will never affect it.
