[poppler] Error: Couldn't find a font for 'Helvetica Bold'

[Sascha Heid]

Hi List.

Error: Couldn't find a font for 'Helvetica Bold'
some font thing failed
Error: Couldn't find a font for 'Times Roman'
some font thing failed
Error: Couldn't find a font for 'Times Bold'
some font thing failed
Error: Couldn't find a font for 'Times Italic'
some font thing failed

I get errors like these in about 10% of the pdfs i want to view
(poppler and evince 0.5).

I asked in the evince-list and they suggested to file a poppler-bug,
then i searched this mailinglist and found one mail about it with some
reply about a fontconfig thing which i didnt understand.

As far as i can tell i have those fonts installed (i can use them in
other apps) and kpdf does not have problems showing these pdfs (kpdf
uses poppler too, right?)

One example would be:
http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/pgubook/ProgrammingGroundUp-1-0-booksize.pdf
(1.3MB)

I would appreciate any enlightening :)

Greetings,
Sascha
