            Bug ID: 103690
           Summary: Illegible rendering with Type-3 fonts
           Product: poppler
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All

          Severity: normal

Example PDF

For some pdfs, poppler renders illegible output: The fonts are rendered as very
bold. I guess this to be due to the Type3-fonts used, but this is really just a
guess.

I attached an example, and also three screenshots (poppler: bad; mupdf: ok;
masterpdfeditor: good). Acrobat under Windows also looks fine, but I don't have
a screenshot.

Viewer: zathura-0.3.7 with zathura-poppler-0.2.7
Poppler: 0.57.0
OS: Gentoo Linux

Note: Example is extracted from the original file using pdfseparate
