Comment(by s.choi@…):
Although this ticket was opened a long time ago, I would like to point out
my
solution for those who will experience more or less similar problem to
this
- I have come to here through Google search.
Basically, this font rendering error comes with a wrong font pointer in
your
"xpdfrc" file.
If you open the file with a text editor (e.g., "vim
/opt/local/etc/xpdfrc"),
you will see lots of "displayFontT1" and its location. The locations of
those font files may differ from system to system. In my case (Mac OS X
10.5.7 and Darwin port 1.7.1, and xpdf version 3.02 Revision 5), the font
locations are as follows:
{{{
displayFontT1 Times-Roman /opt/local/share/fonts/urw-fonts/n021003l.pfb
displayFontT1 Times-Italic /opt/local/share/fonts/urw-fonts/n021023l.pfb
displayFontT1 Times-Bold /opt/local/share/fonts/urw-fonts/n021004l.pfb
displayFontT1 Times-BoldItalic /opt/local/share/fonts/urw-
fonts/n021024l.pfb
displayFontT1 Helvetica /opt/local/share/fonts/urw-fonts/n019003l.pfb
displayFontT1 Helvetica-Oblique /opt/local/share/fonts/urw-
fonts/n019023l.pfb
displayFontT1 Helvetica-Bold /opt/local/share/fonts/urw-fonts/n019004l.pfb
displayFontT1 Helvetica-BoldOblique /opt/local/share/fonts/urw-
fonts/n019024l.pfb
displayFontT1 Courier /opt/local/share/fonts/urw-fonts/n022003l.pfb
displayFontT1 Courier-Oblique /opt/local/share/fonts/urw-
fonts/n022023l.pfb
displayFontT1 Courier-Bold /opt/local/share/fonts/urw-fonts/n022004l.pfb
displayFontT1 Courier-BoldOblique /opt/local/share/fonts/urw-
fonts/n022024l.pfb
displayFontT1 Symbol /opt/local/share/fonts/urw-fonts/s050000l.pfb
displayFontT1 ZapfDingbats /opt/local/share/fonts/urw-fonts/d050000l.pfb
}}}
If you can get it right, then xpdf will not complain about displaying
those
fonts. Hope this helps.
Finally, this is also explained at the original xpdf homepage -
http://www.foolabs.com/xpdf/problems.html .
