Comment on Horrible kerning

It looks like a font substitution issue. You don’t have the type face installed that was originally used to create this PDF. And the font was not embedded in the PDF. So whatever you’re using to view, the PDF is utilizing something like Aerial or Helvetica as a stand in sans serif type face.

Can confirm it is a font substitution issue. When I open the PDF a different font is used (note the very distinctive “r”) which has much better (but not great) kerning.

It’s better, but still horrible in its own special way.
