--- Comment #4 from Brecht Machiels <brecht at mos6581.org> ---
Aha. I though that was a possibility, so I did some checks with fc-match. Those
seemed to be alright. But the output of pdffonts -subst does provide a good
hint:

$ pdffonts -subst poppler_font_styles.pdf
name                                 object ID substitute font                 
    substitute font file
------------------------------------ ---------
------------------------------------ ------------------------------------
Times-Roman                               4  0 Times Roman                     
    /System/Library/Fonts/Times.ttc
Times-Italic                              7  0 Times Negrita Cursiva           
    /System/Library/Fonts/Times.ttc
Times-Bold                               10  0 Times Negrita                   
    /System/Library/Fonts/Times.ttc


I don't have a "Times Negrita" font installed, as far as I can see. Nor do I
remember ever encountering that font. I have no clue how to continue, however.

I am experiencing the same issue with a PDF that uses Helvetica Bold Oblique.
But the output of pdffonts on that file looks normal though.

$ pdffonts -subst sphinx_minimal.pdf
name                                 object ID substitute font                 
    substitute font file
------------------------------------ ---------
------------------------------------ ------------------------------------
Helvetica-Bold                            4  0 Helvetica Bold                  
    /System/Library/Fonts/Helvetica.ttc
Helvetica-BoldOblique                     7  0 Helvetica Bold Oblique          
    /System/Library/Fonts/Helvetica.ttc
Times-Roman                              14  0 Times Roman                     
    /System/Library/Fonts/Times.ttc
Times-Italic                             21  0 Times Negrita Cursiva           
    /System/Library/Fonts/Times.ttc
