Bug Description

Adobe Reader doesn't use font-config by default, which means PDF files that contain Arial or Times fonts get displayed with a generic Adobe Sans font.

To turn font-config support on, the "acroread" launcher script must be modified to uncomment the following lines:

ACRO_ENABLE_FONT_CONFIG=1
export ACRO_ENABLE_FONT_CONFIG
