--- Comment #3 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
No, this is not a bug. LibreOffice (or any PDF processor) is at the mercy of
the PDF generator as to the names of the font's used in the PDF. When the PDF
contains derived names, as most do, a fallback occurs if the operating system
can not match the fontname.

The operating system will handle fontname resolution and fallback when
unidentified. LibreOffice can bypass that fallback by use of the Fonts...
replacement table dialog to exactly specify the replacement.

Identifying the fallback font is a requirement, see bug 61134 or its meta bug
103342

And consider, LibreOffice is not a PDF editor. Should export of document back
to PDF be done--the fontnames of the original PDF will be replaced with 
something different.
