Thank you ("gràcies"), Albert.

I went again to the machine with Adobe reader, I opened the PDF, I made a
screenshot [^1], I removed the "Lucida Console" font there, I restarted the
machine, I opened again the PDF, and the result was very similar (the letters
were not identical, of course) [^2].

[^1]: Attachment "magnified - with Adobe Reader and Lucida Console.png".
[^2]: Attachment "magnified - with Adobe Reader but without Lucida
Console.png".

But what it did not happen there is what I reported in this bug, the "spaces
within letters". For example, in the first attachment of this bug, we can see
too much space between the "C" and the "o", between the "p" and the "t", etc.,
and not between "m" and "m". Adobe Reader uses a monospaced font as a
substitute and this does not happen to it.

Thanks for all the good work!
