Description gmud 2009-07-16 22:30:14 UTC
Version:           Version 0.8.90 (using KDE 4.2.96)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

From time to time I get PDFs which look strange with okular, but not with Adobe Reader. In this case the problems are "jumping letters". Please see http://www.ee.technion.ac.il/~rmeir/Publications/MeiRae03.pdf for an example.

Hi,

Okular uses the Poppler library for loading and rendering PDF documents.
Please report the problem to Poppler's bug tracking system, at https://bugs.freedesktop.org, "poppler" product.

Thanks.
