Title:
  Text does not display in Evince or other pdf viewers

Status in Evince document viewer:
  Invalid
Status in Poppler:
  Fix Released
Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evince

  I just upgraded to Karmic Koala 9.10 from 9.04.

  Before upgrading, I was able to view the pdf at http://www.accuratepowder.com/data/Acc%20Guide%20v3.3%20version.pdf
  without any problems.

  Now, when I open it in Evince (or xpdf, or epdfview), most of the text
  is not visible. Specifically the load data that is found in charts for
  most of the document.

  I have verified that the same file displays correctly in Windows XP.
  Another computer using Karmic Koala also does not display the text.

  It seemed to be a font problem from looking at the error messages, so
  I tried installing all the windows fonts I have into Ubuntu using the
  instructions found here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Fonts

  The fonts installed successfully, but the text in the document still
  does not display.
