Strange font rendering bug in PDF-XChange Viewer. In Foxit Reader it looks OK.

Which build of the viewer do you use ?

Now I'm using 1.0.0025 release. But this bug was also in previous versions: 1.0.0022 for example.

No such problem here in PDF-XChange.

> eNdi: can you report the trouble via "Help -> Repoprt a Problem" into the viewer and turn on the option "Include information about installed fonts and color profiles" which will allow me to know a list of installed fonts on your computer and see maybe there are some conflicts in fonts names.

Not all fonts are affected by this:

And this bug is only in this file. Other pdf's that I have viewed are OK.

Report send via e-mail.

Looks like the trouble because there is installed font "Arial Caps" on your system and this font has the same Postscript name as standard Arial font.

Can you send me this font ?

Arial Caps font sent via e-mail.
After uninstalling it from Windows Fonts folder everything works now.
Thanks for help.

Fonts are OK now but I have found there's also problem with images (probably in jpeg2000 format). There are white stripes on some images (not on all).

Thanks for the file. Will try to solve the problem.
About stripes on the images -- it is known trouble and we are working on this.
