Summary: PDF Font Embedding Bug with
Product: cairo
Version: 1.4.6
Platform: x86 (IA32)
OS/Version: FreeBSD
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: pdf backend
AssignedTo: krh at bitplanet.net
ReportedBy: robert.ricci at gmail.com
QAContact: cairo-bugs at cairographics.org
The "Incolsolata" OpenType Font does not seem to embed properly in PDFs created
by Cairo 1.4.6. The PDFs display properly in some viewers, but in others,
characters are rendered as empty rectangles. Cairo 1.4.0 embedded this font
into
PDFs just fine.
I've created a minimal PDF showing this problem, which you can get here:
http://www.flux.utah.edu/users/ricci/font-embed.pdf
It displays fine in Adobe Reader 8.0.0, xpdf 3.0.2, and KPDF 3.5.4, but not
in Apple Preview 3.0.9 .
Incolsolata is in OpenType format, and released under the OFL - you can get it
here:

The pdffonts command has this to say about the embedding:
