PDF from LibO that fails in Adobe Reader
I use LibreOffice on Debian Testing AMD64 to generate a PDF (attached).
My document uses the font Bitstream Charter, which is part of the base Debian system. I believe that it comes from X.Org, specifically the package xfonts-scalable.
Opening this PDF in Adobe Reader for Windows 9.4 or 10.0 produces an error message that the embedded font cannot be extracted, and all characters are replaced by dots.
The PDF works fine in the non-Adobe programs I've tried.
Choosing a different font avoids the problem.
It would be really great if LibreOffice can check for this problem, and maybe even apply a work-around. Or at least show a warning when the PDF is generated.
