See the attached screenshot from the thumbnail of http://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=File%3AWM_CZ_2010_Annual_Report_-_Czech.pdf&page=1
PdfHandler passes the PDF file off to GhostScript to render pages to JPEGs... if the fonts are embedded, it shouldn't have a problem unless there's a bug in GS. Could be a production-level problem (bad version or config of GS).

Hopefully we'll be upgraded to lucid before too long...
Created attachment 8796 [details] gs rendering output of sample file first page on Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Here's rendering from my server that's running on Lucid. Command line: gs -sDEVICE=jpeg -sOutputFile=- -dFirstPage=1 -dLastPage=1 -r150 -dBATCH -dNOPAUSE -q WM_CZ_2010_Annual_Report_-_Czech.pdf > out.jpg Appears pretty much identical to the bad output in production.
Which seems to suggest it's probably either a configuration issue, else an upstream bug...
