           Version: 1.12.0
          Platform: x86 (IA32)
        OS/Version: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: medium
         Component: pdf backend
        AssignedTo: ajohnson at redneon.com

Original report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cairo/+bug/1026338

When using pdftocairo 0.20.x from
http://packages.ubuntu.com/quantal/poppler-utils , embedded custom encoded
Helvetica fonts are not carried over from original to new PDFs: it gets
substituted as NimbusSanL . Using pdftocairo 0.18.4 with libcairo 1.12, the
error remains; restoring libcairo 1.10 reverts the error.

I have successfully compiled poppler-tools 0.20.2 against libcairo 1.10: the
font substitution error does not occur with it.
