--- Comment #2 from Brecht Machiels <brecht at mos6581.org> ---
I see this behavior (only) for PDFs which make use of the (not-embedded) base
14 PDF fonts. Poppler uses Times-Roman to render both Times-Bold and
Times-Italic.

$ pdffonts poppler_font_styles.pdf
name                                 type              encoding         emb sub
uni object ID
------------------------------------ ----------------- ---------------- --- ---
--- ---------
Times-Roman                          Type 1            Standard         no  no 
no       4  0
Times-Italic                         Type 1            Standard         no  no 
no       7  0
Times-Bold                           Type 1            Standard         no  no 
no      10  0

The output of pdftocairo is attached:

$ pdftocairo -f 1 -singlefile -png poppler_font_styles.pdf poppler_font_styles

evince renders the PDF in the same way.


I would think this worked correctly in the past, but I can't be sure.
